The blue and white selectable markers have been developed which differentiate recombinant colonies from nonrecombinant colonies on the basis of their ability to produce colour in the presence of a chromogenic substrate.
Given below are two statements about this method:
Statement I : The blue coloured colonies have DNA insert in the plasmid and they are identified as recombinant colonies.
Statement II : The colonies without blue colour have DNA insert in the plasmid and are identified as recombinant colonies.
