[Transducing phages of Pseudomonas aeruginosa related to phage F116L]
Abstract:
New phages K104 and B26, which are relative to F116L by a number of biological characters, appeared to show general transducing activity. Phage K104 transduces all tested markers with higher frequency than the phage B26. Linkage of the bacterial markers pair ilv202--met28 durspectively. When recipient bacteria lysogenic for phages K104 and B26 are used, frequencies of transduction by phage F116L are decreased. In the presence of F116L prophage the frequency of transduction by phage B26 is 10-fold increased. Phages B26 and F116L do not grow on bacteria lysogenic for these phages. Phage F116L does not grow on the lawn of bacteria, lysogenic for phage K104, while phage B26 grows on the same lawn with the efficiency of plating about 10(-2).
