Deletion of an rRNA gene set in Bacillus subtilis

K Loughney et al. J Bacteriol. 1983 Apr.

Abstract

One of the 10 rRNA gene sets found in a wild-type strain of Bacillus subtilis 168 was deleted, apparently by recombination between two tandemly repeated rRNA gene sets. The deletion strain grew as well as the wild-type strain under a variety of growth conditions and also showed no change in the sporulation efficiency.
