Expanded linkage map of Vibrio cholerae.
An expanded linkage map of the Vibrio cholerae classical strain 162 chromosome has been prepared using a variety of new auxotrophic mutants. The chromosome consists of a single, linear linkage group. The map consists of 17 markers, which have been ordered; 20 mutational sites, which are tentatively ordered; five markers (ura-1, ser-2, mal-1, man-1, suc-1), which are linked but unordered; and three mutations (aro-2, cys-2 and cys-6) which showed little or no linkage. A proposal is made to standardize genetic nomenclature in V. cholerae genetic studies.
