Pseudomonas methylotrophus is used to produce single-cell protein from methanol in a 1000 m3 pressure-cycle airlift fermenter. The biomass yield from substrate is 0.41 g g- 1, KS is 0.7 mg l- 1, and the maximum specific growth rate is 0.44 h- 1. The medium contains 4% (w/v) methanol. A substrate conversion of 98% is desirable. The reactor may be operated either in batch or continuous mode. If operated in batch, an inoculum of 0.01% (w/v) is used and the downtime between batches is 20 h. If operated continuously, a downtime of 25 d is expected per year. Neglecting maintenance requirements, compare the annual biomass production from batch and continuous reactors?

#SCPH06 I Botany

You obtain 6 BACs (of known order, as shown below) and 7 STSs (of unknown order) that derive from a region of mouse chromosome 16 whose genomic sequence has not yet been finished.   
 
By PCR (using 20-bp primers at either end of each STS), you test each of the 6 BACs for the presence (+) or absence (-) of each of the 7 STSs. You obtain the following results:
 
Would you expect the DNA sequence of PCR product obtained at STS5 using mouse genomic DNA as template to more closely resemble that obtained using BAC B, BAC D, or BAC F? Briefly explain your answer.
