Summary Introduction
To review:
The part of the DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) of Agrobacterium tumefaciens (A. tumefaciens) which is transferred to the plant genome during an infection in the plant cell.
Introduction:
The genome represents the genetic material in an organism having a set of chromosomes which is haploid and contains complete genes. The information required for the growth and maintaining of the body is stored in the genome. In the human genome,

The figure below shows the life cycle of the fungus Neurospora. The adult stage of the Neurospora is a multicellular haploid.
b) Neurospora has an arginine amino acid synthesis pathway shown below. Suppose I take the strain above that only grows with arginine supplements and cross it to a different mutant Neurospora strain that grows with arginine and citrulline supplements but not with ornithine supplements. Assuming gens A, B, and C are unlinked and there is only one mutation per stain:
