[Lysogeny in heat-tolerant hydrocarbon-oxidizing actinomycetes of species Actinomyces griseomycini].
Six strains of thermophilic hydrocarbon-oxidizing Actinomyces griseomycini were tested for lysogeny. The lysogenic state was detected in the four strains and their phages were isolated. The phages isolated from the three strains were virulent and cause lysis of the host culture. All isolated phages were specific and did not cause lysis of other actinomycetes species. However, the phages had different activity towards the six studied strains of Actinomyces griseomycini. One phage induced lysis only of its indicator culture, other phages caused lysis of four strains, including those two from which no phage was isolated. All phages produced negative colonies of identical morphology. The morphology of their particles was also the same. The phages induced cross-resistance and were characterized by thermoresistance.
