Transduction in the archaebacterium Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum Marburg.
The virulent bacteriophage psi M1 of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum Marburg mediated transduction of a resistance marker and of three biosynthesis markers. Transductants were observed at frequencies of 6 x 10(-4) to 5 x 10(-6)/PFU.
