Mutations at different functional loci that encode a different protein, in bacterial cells infected by both mutants, the wildtype sequences on the chromosome opposite each mutation will overcome the effects of the recessive mutations.
The wild-type gene entering first will able to grow on a media deficient for that gene product and the colonies growing lastly would indicate the gene responsible for that entering last
From the graph, the order genes on the chromosome would be
Mal--Xyl--Mtl--Met

7. Five Hfr strains A through E are derived from a single F strain of E. coli. The following chart shows the entry times in minutes of the first five markers into an F strain when each Hfr strain is used in an interrupted-conjugation experiment: A B C E pro gal mal strs ser ade his ade This gal pro mer 11 16 36 51 13 28 38 44 70 prot met xyl mal" strs 29 32 37 his 10...
33. In E. coli, a streptomycin-sensitive, prototrophic Hfr strain was mated to a streptomycin-resistant F-strain auxotrophic for a number of nutritional requirements. After conjugation for various times, the results shown at right were obtained. Of the four genes shown, which two genes map the closest to each other? azir tonr Percent of recipients receiving a given gene lact gal + 10 50 60 20 30 40 Time (minutes)
1. (4) The following are the results from an interrupted mating experiment. Your supervisor has asked you to interpret these results and draw a map showing the distances between the genes. The experimental set up was as follows: Hfr arg + mal + met + pur + pyr + xyl + azi s X F - arg- mal- met- pur- pyr- xyl- azir Exconjugants were plated on medium containing no arginine, maltose as the sole carbon source, and azide at...

An Hfr strain is used to map four genes in an interrupted mating experiment. The cross is Hfr/a+b+c+ rifs ×F−a−b−c− rifr . (No map order is implied in the listing of the alleles; rifr is resistance to the antibiotic rifampicin.) The a+gene is required for the biosynthesis of nutrient A, the b+ gene for nutrient B, c+ for nutrient C. The cross is initiated at time = 0, and at various times, the mating mixture is plated on medium. Each plate contains minimal medium (MM) plus rifampicin....
You perform interrupted conjugation using an a+b+c+d+e+f+g+h+ Hfr strain and an F– strain that is a–b–c–d–e–f–g–h–. You observe the following genes transferred together in order from last to first: h+b+g+d+ e+f+d+g+ f+e+a+c+ What is the map order of the genes?
2. You have identified a mutant E. coli strain that cannot synthesize histidine (His). To determine the location of the his mutation on the E. coli chromosome, you perform interrupted mating experiments with 5 different Hfr strains. The following chart shows the time of entry (minutes, in parentheses) of the wild-type alleles of the first 5 markers (mutant genes) into the His strain. + + Hfr A. Hfr B Hfr CH Hfr D. Hfr E- his (3) cys (11)- arg...
1. The following diagram shows the genetic map for a chromosome. A B C D 10cM 5cM 40cM If a diploid female heterozygous for A and D (A D//a d) is testcrossed to a homozygous recessive male (a d/a d), what percent of the progeny are predicted to have the genotype A d/a d? A. 100 B. 75 C. 50 D. 25 E. Can’t be determined 2. Yellow body (y), vermillion eye color (v) and miniature body (m) are recessive...
Please explain step by step... thank you! In order to determine the overall chromosome map for E coli, three Hfr strains were obtained from a protrophic but erythromycin resistant F+ ancestor. The start times of transfer during conjugation matings with F- strains carrying auxotrophic, fermentation, and erythromycin- sensitivity markers were determined for each Hfr strain, as listed. A. Using the times for transfer of each marker, draw a unified chromosome map of E coli, showing the order and relative distances...
2. You have performed the following mating experiment using Hfr and F"strains of Escherichia coli:(4 marks) Hfr (asp+ trp+ mal+ StrepS) x F (asp-trp-mal- Strep). Strep = streptomycin, an antibiotic Asp = aspartic acid, an amino acid Trp = tryptophan, an amino acid Mal = maltose, a sugar molecule, can be used by some organisms as an energy source rather than glucose (a) What selective media would you use to score recombinant colonies that have received all of the markers...
