Abstract excerpt

Non-motile mutants of Vibrio cholerae were isolated after transposon insertion mutagenesis with either Tn5 on a plasmid or Tn10ptac mini-kan in bacteriophage lambda. The physical location and number of transposon insertions was determined. Eighteen Tn5 insertion mutants and 11 Tn10ptac mini-kan i...
