The transformation results below were obtained with 10 ul of intact plasmid DNA at nine concentrations. The following numbers of colonies are obtained when 100|ul of transformed cells are plated on selective medium: Fill in the following table: Concentration # colonies DNA mass of Fraction of Mass Transformation PGREEN (Concentration PGREEN in cell Cell efficiency suspension x volume OR X spread = 100 µl + total vol cell susp.

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.
