MORPHOLOGIC VARIATION IN PNEUMOCOCCUS : II. CONTROL OF PNEUMOCOCCAL MORPHOLOGY THROUGH TRANSFORMATION REACTIONS

The interaction of each of the four morphologic variants of pneumococcus with the transforming principles of the heterologous morphologic variants of the same species has been studied and has resulted in the isolation of eighteen of the twenty variants predicted to arise through such interactions.

Descripción
Sumario:The interaction of each of the four morphologic variants of pneumococcus with the transforming principles of the heterologous morphologic variants of the same species has been studied and has resulted in the isolation of eighteen of the twenty variants predicted to arise through such interactions. The analogy of the findings to the recombination of independently heritable characters in sexually reproducing forms has been noted.
