title: [Characteristics of transduction in Erwinia by phage 59].
abstract: A temperate bacteriophage 59 from polylysogenic strain Erwinia carotovora 268 transduces the following genetic markers: arg+, ilv+, leu+, met+, thr+, thy+, trp+, ura+. The transduction frequencies varied from 1 x 10(-8)- to 1 x 10(-6) and dependent on the multiplicity of infection, UV-irradiation of transducing bacteriophage, the nature of phage lysates. The characteristics of single transductants have been studied. Analysis of the obtained results suggests bacteriophage 59 to perform the generalized transduction.
