Luria delbruck experiment

Lecture explains about Luria delbruck experiment for the spontaneous mutation. http://shomusbiology.com/ Download the study materials here- http://shomusbiology.weebly.com/bio-materials.html The Luria--Delbrück experiment (1943) (also called the Fluctuation Test) demonstrates that in bacteria, genetic mutations arise in the absence of selection, rather than being a response to selection. Therefore, Darwin's theory of natural selection acting on random mutations applies to bacteria as well as to more complex organisms. Max Delbrück and Salvador Luria won the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in part for this work. Source of the article published in description is Wikipedia.
