As an aspiring undergraduate researcher, you want to identify the gene responsible for bacterial virulence of your favorite path
Marianna [84]

It is likely that the strain you obtained with a mutation in gene X after random mutagenesis contained an additional mutation or perhaps multiple mutations which ultimately was/were responsible for loss of virulence in your favorite pathogen.
