Studies on Induced Variation in the Rhizobia: II. Radiation Sensitivity and Induction of Antibiotic-resistance Markers

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

The relation between survival and dose of ultraviolet (UV) light or X rays was, with only one exception, nonlinear for late-log-phase cultures of four species of Rhizobium. The ld90 for different bacterial strains ranged from 400 to 3,000 ergs per mm2 for UV treatment, and from 3.0 to 7.5 kr for X-ray treatment.
