Question
Five different strains of E. coli (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) were streaked onto a series of tester plates. After incubating the streaked plates for an
appropriate amount of time, they were scored for growth (+) or no growth (-) of the various strains on each respective plate. MM denotes
minimal medium, CM denotes complete medium and letters A, B and C denote the supplements added to minimal medium. Assume
supplements A, B and C construct the complete biochemical pathway. The results are shown below.
