Abstract

An F- lac plasmid from Escherichia coli was transferred to virulent Yersinia pestis , resulting in the repression of virulence. The Y. pestis F- lac clones retained all of the known virulence traits but were avirulent and calcium independent. Every lac segregant derived from the F- lac clones was fully virulent and calcium dependent.
