Abstract excerpt

A number of Solanum nigrum mutants resistant to the antibiotics spectinomycin, streptomycin and lincomycin have been isolated from regenerating leaf strips after mutagenesis with nitroso-methylurea. Selection of streptomycin- and spectinomycin-resistant mutants has been described earlier. Lincomy...
