Taylor conducted the experiments to prove the semiconservative mode of chromosome replication on:
  1. Vinca rosea
  2. Vicia faba
  3. Drosophila melanogaster
  4. E. coli

Solution

Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl (1958) performed following experiment using heavy nitrogen (15N) in E. coli to prove semi-conservative model of DNA replication. Taylor et. al proved semi-conservative mode of chromosome replication in eukaryotes using tritiated thymidine (3H - thymidine) in root of Vicia faba (Faba beans).
