Question

Four E. coli strains of genotype a+ b- are labeled 1, 2, 3,
and 4. Four strains of genotype a- b+ are labeled 5, 6, 7,
and 8. The two genotypes are mixed in all possible combinations and (after incubation) are plated to determine the
frequency of a+ b+ recombinants. The following results
are obtained, where M = many recombinants, L = low
numbers of recombinants, and 0 = no recombinants:On the basis of these results, assign a sex type (either
Hfr, F+, or F-) to each strain.
