ε³⁴ファージ系における溶原化過程の分析I

ファージ感染細胞よりファージをもたぬ細胞の分離

抄録

Salmonella anatum was lysogenized with a converting phage ε¹⁵. The resulting S. anatum (ε¹⁵) was infected with another converting phage ε³⁴ (m.o.i.=2.5), and the pattern of segregation of non-ε³⁴-carrying progenies from ε³⁴-infected cells was analyzed both by mass cultures and by single clone experiments. Both presented evidences that non-ε³⁴-carrying progeny cells were segregated out from ε³⁴-infected cells, but the segregation was to only a slight extent, suggesting that the phage ε³⁴ becomes an established prophage more easily and more quickly than the phage ε¹⁵.
