[Transduction of chromosome and plasmid markers of bacteriophage P1 in pseudotuberculosis pathogen]

A clone of bacteriophage P1 clr100 cml has been isolated capable of the general transduction in the cells of pseudotuberculosis causative agent. The genetic transfer of the 6 Md pesticinogenicity plasmid by the bacteriophage has been used as a model to demonstrate the possibility of transduction. The bacteriophage used has been shown to be efficient in interspecies transduction between yersinia.
