- 15 Mutations:
- Comments:
- 1. R.R.B. Russell and A. Egan suggest these procedures for use of JP5127 for the transduction of rel:
- 2. The concentration of propanediol in minimal plates must be 0.2% at least. Transduction to growth on propanediol may require 5 days' incubation at 37 degrees C.
- 3. In some genetic backgrounds, there is no apparent cotransduction of fuc-3 with argA or rel.
- 4. It is suggested that as much as 0.1 ml of the undiluted transduction mixture be plated (as well as normal dilutions) as the frequency of transductions may be low.
