Bacterial Genetics 1 Bacterial Genetics (Chapter 7) The beginning of Chapters 7 is largely a review of topics covered in Biol 131, and our focus will be on the sections beginning with “Mutations to Genes” How is knowledge of bacterial mutation and recombination important? -- Evolution -- Antibiotic resistance -- Genetic engineering How do bacteria obtain new traits? Spontaneous mutation -- or experimentally ‘induced’ From other cells “Genetic recombination” We will discuss the basic steps used in genetic engineering, and you should read the pertinent sections of Chapter 8.
