Abstract excerpt
In Streptomyces ambofaciens, genetic instability occurring during aerial mycelium development gives rise to white mutant papillae on colonies. Pig-pap mutants deriving from such papillae are unable to sporulate and devoid of the large genome rearrangement usually observed in the other Streptomyces mutants that genetic instability generated. Pig-pap mutants frequently harboured discrete mutations affecting the...
