Bacterial Genomics
The study of the morphological, physiological, and evolutionary aspects of the bacterial genome is referred to as bacterial genomics. This subdisciplinary field aids in understanding how genes are assembled into genomes. Further, bacterial or microbial genomics has helped researchers in understanding the pathogenicity of bacteria and other microbes.
Transformation Experiment in Bacteria
In the discovery of genetic material, the experiment conducted by Frederick Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia proved to be a stepping stone.
Plasmids and Vectors
The DNA molecule that exists in a circular shape and is smaller in size which is capable of its replication is called Plasmids. In other words, it is called extra-chromosomal plasmid DNA. Vectors are the molecule which is capable of carrying genetic material which can be transferred into another cell and further carry out replication and expression. Plasmids can act as vectors.
Complete the missing results for the bacterial species.
The IMViC test includes four different tests that are used to identify and differentiate between the members of the Enterobacteriaceae family. The four tests are indole test (I), methyl red test (M), Voges-Proskauer test (V), citrate utilization test (C). The coliform group of microbes that include gram-negative facultative anaerobic microbes can be distinguished from each other on the basis of this test. It coupled with other biochemical tests like urease test, malonate test, and triple sugar iron test.
