Abstract
The mutation range was studied inBrevibacterium sp. M27 after UV irradiation and after treatment with N-methyl-N’-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine. The induction of auxotrophic mutants and mutants resistant to streptomycin and tetracycline was investigated. A collection of auxotrophic mutants for the studies of genetic transfer in this model was prepared.
