Transformation of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides with deoxyribonucleic acid isolated from bacteriophage R phi 6P.

W T Tucker and J M Pemberton

ABSTRACT

The transformation of the photosynthetic bacterium Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides with the circular genome of the penicillinase-encoding, temperate bacteriophage R phi 6P was demonstrated. The transformation was dependent on the infection of the recipient by another, apparently closely related, temperature bacteriophage, R phi 9. Optimum transformation occurred in the recipient cells already lysogenic for R phi 9 when superinfected with that bacteriophage at multiplicities of infection between 1 and 10 R phi 9 particles per recipient cell.
