A mutant strain of T4 – Bacteriophage, R-II,
fails to lyse the E-Coli but when two strains RIIX and R-IIY are mixed then they lyse the
E.Coli. What may be the possible reason : -
- ABoth strains have different cistrons
- BBoth strains have simillar cistrons
- CIt is not mutated
- DBacteriophage transforms in wild
