Genetic recombination in a chloramphenicol-producing strain of Streptomyces species 3022a.
Mutation with ultraviolet light and chemical mutagens yielded strains with auxotrophic and streptomycin-resistance markers. These were used to show the existence of genetic recombination in Streptomyces species 3022a and to construct a linkage map for 17 marker loci.
