You will be given the plaque assay plates to analyse from three different bacteriophages stocks You need to determine which bacteriophage should be used in subsequent transductions. You should give a reason why. PHYSIOLOGY AN GENETICS I Experimental set up: all culture plates were incubated at 37°C over night Bacteriophage A 200 μl of bacteriophage A was added to 800 μl of E. coli broth culture. The mixed culture was then diluted 1/10 to 10-4. 100 μl of the mixed culture was then added to 9.9 ml molten agar and poured into the petri dish. Bacteriophage B 100 μl of bacteriophage B was added to 900 μl of E. coli broth culture. The mixed culture was then diluted 1/10 to 10-5. 1000 ul of the mixed culture was then added to 9 ml molten agar and poured into the petri dish. Bacteriophage C 250 μl of bacteriophage C was added to 750 μl of E. coli broth culture. The mixed culture was then diluted 1/10 to 10-6. 1000 μl of the mixed culture was then added to 9 ml molten agar and poured into the petri dish.
