What will be an ideal response?
A mutant you made in the laboratory with 5-bromouracil suddenly regains the wild-type phenotype. You discuss this phenomenon with your advisor and colleagues, and they suggest you try transposon mutagenesis to avoid this problem and create stable mutants
Why would mutants created with 5-bromouracil be more likely to regain the wild-type phenotype than mutants created via transposon mutagenesis? What will be an ideal response?
