Abstract excerpt
Bacterial subclones recovered from an old stab culture of Escherichia coli K-12 revealed a high degree of genetic diversity, which occurred in spite of a very reduced rate of propagation during storage. This conclusion is based on a pronounced restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) detected upon hybridization with internal fragments of eight resident insertion sequences (IS). Genetic diversity was...
