Question

Indicate whether each of the following occurs or is characteristic of generalized transduction (GT), specialized transduction (ST), both (B), or neither (N). Phage carries DNA of bacterial or viral origin. Phage carries viral DNA linked to bacterial DNA. Phage integrates into a specific site on the host chromosome. Phage integrates at a random site on the host chromosome. Viral capsid is packaged with bacterial DNA. Host is lysogenized. Prophage state exists. Temperate phage is involved. Virulent phage is involved.
