Generalized and Specialized Transduction Choose whether the

Generalized and Specialized Transduction Choose whether the following examples illustrate generalized transduction, specialized transduction, both, or neither. Drag and drop choices into the bins they describe.

Solution

1. Transduction may involve a virulent phage.

2. Any part of the host genome can be transfered.

3. A relatively low percentage of cells exposed under transduction.

1. Transduction must involve a temperate phage

2. Only specific regions of DNA can be transduced.

3. It is not necessary for phages to be defective for transduction

1. Gene transfer occurs through a GTA.

2. Transduced DNA is integrated into the host s a part of prophage

3. It is accomplised by transducing particles.
