Conjugation and Genetic Recombination in Escherichia coli K-12
Abstract
"... it is also a good rule not to put overmuch confidence in the observational results that are put forward until they have been confirmed by theory."--Sir Arthur Eddington, "New Pathways in Science." It is just ten years since the first report of genetic recombination i Escherichia coli K-12 was made to this Symposium by Lederberg and Tatum. Since then a great deal of work has been devoted to study of the genetics of recombination but, in general, such studies have tended to stress the complexity of the genetic process by bringing to light the anomalies inherent in it rather than to elucidate its mechanism. We do not intend to summarise all this work here since it has already been covered by recent reviews (Lederberg,

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
