Which process of bacteriophage is not used for gene cloning?

please chose correct answer. thank you!

Which process of bacteriophage is not used for gene Cloning? Select one: a. Concatemer formation X b. Lytic cycle C. Lysogenic Cycle d. viral packaging

Solution

Lysogenic cycle of the bacteriophage includes the inactive phase of virus that does not lyse the host cell and remain inactive. This process of lysogeny is not required for gene cloning and the genes for the lysogeny are replaced by the genes of interest. Correct answer is C.
