Abstract excerpt
Recombination hotspots have previously been discovered in bacteriophage T4 by two different approaches, marker rescue recombination from heavily damaged phage genomes and recombination during co-infection by two undamaged phage genomes. The phage replication origin ori(34) is located in a region that has a hotspot in both assays. To determine the relationship between the origin and the two kinds of hotspots, we...
