Chapter 5, Problem 40P
Summary Introduction

a.

To determine:

The genotypes of the spores within the two asci groups.

Introduction:

A cross performed in between yeast strain requiring methionine as well as lysine for growth, which is met-lys- and the strain that was met+lys+.

Summary Introduction

b.

To determine:

Whether the lys and met genes are linked and the map distance between these genes.

Introduction:

A cross between two yeast strains can be depicted as: metlys×met+lys+. Out of the asci obtained from the cross, 100 had been dissected.

Summary Introduction

c.

To determine:

The phenotype of some discovered asci that have a different pattern and list the phenotypes as the ability of spores to grow on the four types of Petri plates.

Introduction:

The building blocks of the proteins are amino acids. Lysine and methionine come under the category of amino acids.

Two auxotrophic triple Escherichia coli strains (A: met- phe- ade- val+ bio+ thr+ and B: met+ phe+ ade+ val- bio- thr-) are mixed in LB liquid medium, diluted and then spread on LB solid rich medium. Six colonies are observed: Then, replicates are performed on 6 different media (minimum medium + glucose + indicated substances). The results are shown below. Determine the genotype of the 6 colonies observed. Which ones are from strain A? From strain B? Which hypotheses can explain these results and which one do you prefer? met phe val bio Abbreviations: met ade val thr phe ade bio thr Met: methionine; Phe: phenylalanine; Ade: adenine; Val: valine; Bio: biotin; Thr: threonine.
From a cross between e+ f+ g+ and e− f − g− strains ofNeurospora, recombination between these linkedgenes resulted in a few octads containing the followingordered set of spores:e+ f+ g+e+ f+ g+e+ f − g+e+ f − g+e− f − g−e− f − g−e− f − g−e− f − g−a. Where was recombination initiated?b. Did crossing-over occur between genes e and g?Explain.c. Why do you end up with 2 f+ : 6 f − but 4 e+: 4 e−and 4g+: 4g−?d. Could you characterize these unusual octads as MIor MII for any of the three genes involved?Explain.
An Hfr strain that is leuA+ and thiL+ was mixed with a strain thatis leuA− and thiL−. In the data points shown in the following graph,the conjugation was interrupted at different time points, and thepercentage of recombinants for each gene was determined bystreaking on a medium that lacked either leucine or thiamine.What information do you know based on the question and your understanding of the topic?
