Please help urgently
You are studying a strain of bacteria that is able to
do conjugation. You notice that this strain of
bacteria can donate the ability to be a donor to the
recipient cell, but it can't donate genes from its
genome.
Is your strain an F+ strain or an Hfr strain?
Genetically, what is the difference between these
two strains that causes them to behave
differently? Explain the difference in behaviour
with respect to donation of genomic DNA as well
as donation of the ability to be a donor.
