Summary Introduction

To explain:

Theway in which interrupted conjugation, transformation and transduction can be used to map bacterial genes.

Introduction:

The transfer of genes from one bacterial cell to other by direct contact between the cells of bacteria is known as bacterial conjugation. The change in the genome of bacteria which takes place by the uptake of foreign DNA is known as transformation. The process of transfer of genetic material from one bacterial cell to another with the help of viruses that carry the genes that are transferred is known as transduction.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The way in which conjugation, transformation and transduction methods are similar and the way in which they are different.

Introduction:

The interruption is halted between the process of conjugation, transformation and transduction. Itis necessary during mapping of genomes of recipient cell.
