Four Hfr stains of E
Four Hfr stains of E. coli are known to transfer their genetic material during conjugation in different sequences. Given the time of entry of the markers into the F- recipient:
A. Construct a genetic map that includes all of these markers. (12 points)
B. Label the time distance between adjacent gene pairs. (11 points)
C. Indicate the points at which the F factor is located for each of the strains. (4 points)

Expert Solution
A. Here is the genetic map including all the markers (drawn on the basis of distance between the entry of markers into the F- recipient).
(fig 1 in attachment)
Here is the distribution of markers on the chromosome along with the time difference (in minutes) between different markers. (fig 2 in attachment)
B. The time distance between adjacent gene pairs is:
phe____12min____arg____6min_____thy____11min____mal____7min____met____5min_____thi____11min_____thr____1min____azi____15min_____bio____8min____try____14min_____his_____5min_____phe
C. The points at which the F factor is located for each of the strains:
Hfr Strain 1: Between markers phe and arg as the first gene to enter the F- strain is arg indicating the integration of F factor between phe and arg markers.
Hfr Strain 2: Between markers thy and mal as the first gene to enter the F- strain is mal indicating the integration of F factor between thy and mal markers.
Hfr Strain 3: Between markers phe and arg as the first gene to enter the F- strain is phe followed by his indicating the integration of F factor between phe and arg markers in reverse orientation.
Hfr Strain 4: Between markers try and his as the first gene to enter the F- strain is his indicating the integration of F factor between try and his markers.
