Chapter 18.5, Problem 3EQ
Gene Transfer Between Bacteria
CoreSKILL » The gene transfer seen in the Lederberg and Tatum experiment could have occurred in one of two ways: by bacteria taking up DNA released into the environment or by contact between two bacterial cells that allowed for direct transfer. Davis conducted an experiment to determine the correct process. Explain how his results indicated the correct gene transfer process.
