Abstract excerpt
A protocol that allows the rapid isolation and growth of large numbers of independent G418-resistant Dictyostelium discoideum transformant colonies on the surface of agar media with live bacteria was developed. Transformants grown under these conditions form normal fruiting bodies. Discovery that aggregation of nontransformants was inhibited at a nonselective level of G418 (25 to 35 micrograms/ml) led to the...
