title: Association of the recombination-deficient phenotype of Bacillus subtilis recC strains with the presence of an SPO2 prophage.
abstract: The recombination-defective phenotype associated with the recC genetic locus in Bacillus subtilis is not due to a chromosomal mutation at this site but rather to the presence of an integrated SPO2 prophage.
