GENETIC DETERMINANTS OF COLICIN PRODUCTION, PRINCIPALLY THEIR RELATION WITH BACTERIOPHAGE AND WITH THE F AGENT OF FERTILITY

Abstract

Experiments were conducted wit colicinogenic factors El, and V. Markers other than colicinogenicity and F polarity were studied in these crosses. Besides the usual mutant markers of E.coli K12, 2 other markers, susceptibility to Burnet's phase C36 and production of gas by glucose fermentation, were found to be of interest. The results indicate that in crosses of 2 parents from different origin, the segment of chromosome, which is transmitted or integrated, is shorter than when the 2 parents are derivatives of the same strain.
