a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The reason that there are no proC- genotypes among the transductants.

Introduction:

In transduction process, the closer the genes are present on a DNA, the more possibility they have to show transduction together and have higher transduction rates. In the experiment, the mutants of Streptococcus pneumonia show transduction and give different variants.

b.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

The genotypes represent single transductants and which of them represent cotransductants.

Introduction:

In transduction process, the closer the genes are present on a DNA, the more possibility they have to show transduction together and have higher transduction rates. In the experiment, the mutants of Streptococcus pneumonia show transduction and give different variants.

c.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

Whether there is any evidence that proA, proB and proD are located close to proC, with explanation.

Introduction:

In transduction process, the closer the genes are present on a DNA, the more possibility they have to show transduction together and have higher transduction rates. In the experiment, the mutants of Streptococcus pneumonia show transduction and give different variants.
