Abstract

IT has been known for some time that the sensitivity of bacteria to lysis by bacteriophage is conditioned among other things by the presence of lysogenic infection with one or more bacteriophages. Various workers1–3 have shown that when sensitive cultures were lysogenically infected with typing or even unrelated phages they undergo a change of phage type, the change being a diminution in the number of phages capable of lysing the bacterial cell.
