Abstract excerpt
The spontaneous reversion to His+ of the Salmonella typhimurium alleles hisD3052 and hisG46 was investigated. In fluctuation tests, the expected "jackpot" distribution of His+ revertants was not observed. The experimental distributions were close to Poisson distribution. The redistribution test showed no significant differences in the His+ colony counts between spread and unspread plates. An attempt at indirect...
