4). You perform a complementation test using seven mutants of phage T4. All mutants grow on E. coli XL1 (the permissive host). Co-infections of mutant phage in the restrictive B/2 bacteria produce virus that either does or does not infect strain XL1 as shown in the table below. This is a standard complementation test ("+"= complementation, "0" = no complementation). Use this table to answer the following questions. 765432 1 1 0 + + + + + 0 2 + + + 0 + 0 3 + 0 0 + 0 a).
