Specialized transduction has a unique requirement for A Aber

Specialized transduction has a unique requirement for...

A. Aberrant excision of host genes

B. Uptake of viral DNA by a conjugation pore

C. Replicative transfer of DNA

I think the answer might be A? I am pretty sure B is wrong.

Solution

A.

Specialized transduction occurs when the enzyme that cuts the viral DNA out of the host chromosome makes a mistake and cuts in the wrong place, removing some, but not all, of the viral genes.
