Identification of Two Widely Separated Loci Conferring Nicotinic Acid Dependence on Wild-Type Shigella flexneri 2a

¹ Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Washington, D.C. 20012

ABSTRACT

Two widely separated loci causing the nicotinic acid dependence of wild-type Shigella flexneri 2a were identified by intergeneric mating procedures and found to be closely linked to the gal and fuc chromosomal determinants.
