GENETIC EXCHANGE IN SALMONELLA

Open access
Zinder, Norton D., Lederberg, Joshua·1952·Journal of Bacteriology

Abstract

Genetic investigations with many different bacteria have revealed parallelisms and some contrasts with the biology of higher forms. The successful application of selective enrichment techniques to the study of gene recombination in Escherichia coli (Tatum and Lederberg, 1947; Lederberg et al., 1951) suggestred that a similar approach should be applied to other bacteria. This paper presents the results of such experiments with Salmonella typhimurium a.nd other Salmonella serot,ypes. The mechanism of genetic exchange found in these experiments differs from sexual recombination in E. coli in many respect’s so as t,o warrant a new descriptive term, transduction.

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.
