Question

(Based on Problem 34) You have infected E. coli cells with two strains of T4 virus. One strain is minute (m), rapid lysis (r), and turbid (tu); the other is wild type for all three markers. The lytic products of this infection are plated and classified. The resulting 10,341 plaques were distributed among eight genotypes is shown in the table above. What is the coefficient of coincidence in the cross? (Hint: solve this like a normal 3 point cross)
