Abstract
The demonstration of genetic recombination in Vibrio cholerae by Bhaskaran [1–4], provided new avenues for the study of variability in Vibrio species by Bhaskaran, Sinha and Iyer [8], Bhaskaran and Sinha [5], development of vaccine strains and evaluation of immune mechanisms in cholera by Bhaskaran and Sinha [6], Sinha and Bhaskaran [11, 12]. In the main, the genetic phenomenon identified in V. cholerae resembled sexual mating in Escherichia coli, chromosomal transfer occurring from a donor to a receipient strain by conjugation. The donor trait was determined by transmissible sex factor, designated P: P+ denoting the presence and P− absence of the factor in the strain concerned.KeywordsVersus FactorGenetic RecombinationVibrio SpeciesHaemolytic ActivityVibrio CholeraeThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
