Characterization of temperate bacteriophages of Bacillus subtilis by the restriction endonuclease EcoRI: evidence for three different temperate bacteriophages.
Temperate bacteriophages of Bacillus subtilis were characterized according to host range and digestion of the bacteriophage genome by endonuclease EcoRI. The three bacteriophages, phi3T, SPO2, and phi105, were all heteroimmune, and the DNA digests showed dissimilar patterns by agarose-ethidium bromide gel electrophoresis.
