The Hfr genome couldn't be completely transferred because the cells couldn't stay in contact for long enough. Bacterial sex is another name for bacterial conjugation.
Recipient cell remains recipient following the cross between Hfr and F- cells. Chromosomes and some F-factor are almost always transferred from the donor to the recipient cell during this conjugation. Recombination occurs frequently as a result.
Gene conversion will occur much less frequently in Hfr strains (F+ strains with an integrated F factor, such as B, C, and D). The F factor is the last piece of the bacterial chromosome to be transferred during conjugation.
