Transduction of Linked Chromosomal Genes between 'Pseudomonas aeruginosa' Strainsduring Incubation In situ in a Freshwater Habitat

摘要

Both transduction of single chromosomal loci and cotransduction of closely linkedloci were observed between lysogenic and nonlysogenic strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in a freshwater habitat. Transductants were recovered at frequencies of 10 to the minus 6 to 10 to the minus 5 transductants per CFU. Transductants of
