#Question id: 5294


Interrupted mating experiments were performed using three different Hfr strains (1-3). The three strains have different combinations of selectable markers. The time of entry for markers for each strain is shown is shown in the table given.

Hfr 1

Phe

(5)

Trp

(35)

Met

(50)

Ala

(52)

Hfr 2

Trp

(2)

Val

(12)

His

(57)

Pro

(87)

Hfr 3

Ala

(10)

Met

(12)

Val

(37)

Phe

(57)

Using the above data, predict the correct sequence of markers on the E. coli chromosome
