title: Bacteriophage DNA: correlation of buoyant density, melting temperature, and the chemically determined base composition.
abstract: The mathematical relationships between the buoyant density, melting temperature, and chemically determined base composition of bacteriophage DNA are described and compared with regression equations derived from studies with bacterial DNA.
