Abstract excerpt

Endogenous chromosomal DNA amplifications with associated tetracycline resistance (Tcr) in Bacillus subtilis were first described by C. R. Wilson and A. E. Morgan (J. Bacteriol. 163:445-453, 1985). We have confirmed and extended their results, and we show that fusion of protoplasts from Tcs B. su...
