Computer Simulation of a Microbial Genetics Experiment as a Learning Aid for Undergraduate Teaching.
Peer reviewedDay, M. J.; And Others – Journal of Biological Education, 1983
Reports design of an interactive computer program (FORTRAN) in microbial genetics. The program is divided into three stages: background information, simulation, and data treatment. Results obtained from the simulation allow four genes to be sequenced along the bacterial chromosome. The simulation mimics experimental errors and production of…

Peer reviewedDay, M. J.; And Others – Journal of Biological Education, 1985
An interactive computer program in microbial genetics is described. The simulation allows students to work at their own pace and develop understanding of microbial techniques as they choose donor bacterial strains, specify selective media, and interact with demonstration experiments. Sample questions and outputs are included. (DH)
