Scientists can identify the gene mutated in a bacterial auxotroph by transforming the cells with a genomic library in which fragments of the auxotroph's genome have been cloned into plasmids.
a. True
b. False
Explanation: this can only be true if the genes in the genomic library fragments have been identified and if the mutation is an SNP and not an inversion or deletion or insertion, whether they were cloned into plasmids or not.
