Mutagenesis of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora with bacteriophage Mu d1 (Apr lac cts62): construction of his-lac gene fusions
Abstract
The bacteriophage Mu d1(Apr lac cts62 ) obtained from an Escherichia coli double lysogen carrying the defective Mu d1 phage and a Mu-P1 hybrid phage was utilized as a vector for phage mutagenesis in Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora. Among ampicillin-resistant transductants. 1.4% were auxotrophs. The synthesis of beta-galactosidase was derepressed upon starvation for histidine in two different his-lac fusion strains.
