Gene Exchange
Microbial genetics. Mutations in Bacteria Mutations arise in bacterial populations –Induced –Spontaneous Rare mutations are expressed –Bacteria are haploid.
Exchange of Genetic Information. Mutations in Bacteria Mutations arise in bacterial populations –Induced –Spontaneous Rare mutations are expressed –Bacteria.
Changes in bacterial traits Caused by: Changes in environmental conditions (only phenotypic changes) Changes in the genetic codes 1- Intermicrobial exchange.
VIRUSES. Lytic vs. Lysogenic Vaccines First made was in 1700’s- fight smallpox Help prevent viral infections, but they cannot cure most viral infection.
