Abstract excerpt

Competent cells of Bacillus subtilis are more sensitive to N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) than total population, exhibit higher level of spontaneous mutations to kanamycin resistance. However, the absolute number of mutated transformants doesn't rise with MNNG treatment in the range...
