7. Bacterial Genetics I.Overview - Domains of Life II. Prokaryotic Reproduction A. fission The rapid production of new organisms creates genetic diversity by mutation, alone; even though the rates of mutation are low for any given gene. Consider an average gene mutation rate = 1 x 10 -5 (meaning a new mutation is produced in every 100,000 copies… or descendants). In 10 billion (10 10 ) descendants, there would be 10 5 different mutations at this one gene. This is happening independently across 4000 (4 x 10 3 ) genes in the E. coli genome. So, in that population of 10 billion cells, there might be as many as 4 x 10 8 different genomes. About 1/3 will be “silent” (not change the AA), and many will result in a lethal mutation so they won’t occur. But still….. VARIATION.

10. Lederberg and Tatum – 1946 - certain strains of bacteria are able to donate genes to other strains – they have a “fertility factor” (F+). Other strains lack this factor (F-).

13. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. Figure 8-6 And Cavalli Sforza isolated a strain that would cause genetic change at a very high rate: Hfr (High frequency recombination). He recognized that the acquisition of traits was related to the duration of the conjugation event.

14. Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc. He hypothesized that the time between transfer to the recipient cell was related to the distance between genes. As such, if he interrupted mating at specific intervals, he could use time between trait acquisition as an index of distance between genes.
