Answer #1

Option 2nd is the correct answer.

There are four methods by which genetic variation occurs in bacteria:

1. Transformation: in this process bacteria grab the DNA floating in their surrounding environment.

2. Transduction: Transfer of DNA occurs by virus accidentally.

3. Congugation: During congugation, transfer of Genetic material occurs by the formation of a tube called pilus between F+ (donor) and F- (recipient) strain of bacteria.

4. Transposition: Jumping of a particular stretch of DNA from one place to other.

. We know that an F+ cell can donate its F plasmid to a recipient cell to create a new F+ cell. But what about an Hfr? Can an Hfr transfer its DNA as well? (yes/no) Please explain your answer. Why did you answer yes or no? Let’s just assume, for the sake of this exam, that an Hfr cell could transfer DNA. What would the recipient cell look like? What would it be called? F+? F-? Hfr+?

Draw a diagram/figure to explain the conjugation process. You should include in the diagram the F- recipient, Hfr Donor and the transconjugant/recombinant recipient. Make sure to include the genes encoding for Leucine, Threonine, Thiamine and Streptomycin resistance in your diagram. How does an Hfr strain of E. coli transfers chromosomal DNA to an F- strain? What determines how much of the chromosomal DNA is transferred?
