Isolation and Properties of Suppressor-Sensitive Mutants of Bacillus subtilis Bacteriophage SPO2

Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Kyushu University, Fukuoka, Japan

ABSTRACT

Suppressor-sensitive mutants of Bacillus subtilis phage SPO2 were isolated and classified into 18 cistrons. A linear genetic map was constructed. The genes controlling early functions of phage development were clustered near the CI gene which may produce phage repressor.
