Four E. coli strains of genotype a+ b− are labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Four strains of genotype a− b+ are labeled 5, 6, 7, and 8. The two genotypes are mixed in all possible combinations and (after incubation) are plated to determine the frequency of a+ b+ recombinants. The following results are obtained, where M = many recombinants, L = low numbers of recombinants, and 0 = no recombinants. On the basis of these results, assign a sex type (either Hfr, F+, or F−) to each strain

In a generalized transduction experiment, phages are collected from an E. coli donor strain of genotype cys+ leu+thr+ and used to transduce a recipient of genotype cys_ leu_ thr_. Initially, the treated recipient population is plated on a minimal medium supplemented with leucine and threonine. Many colonies are obtained. These colonies are then replica-plated onto three different media: What is order of gene?

A transformation experiment is performed with a donor strain that is resistant to four drugs: A, B, C, and D. The recipient is sensitive to all four drugs. The treated recipient cell population is divided up and plated on media containing various combinations of the drugs. The table below shows the results. What is the probable order of the three tightly linked genes?
