1767–1772. 1966.—The sex factor of
Escherichia coli
K-12 was introduced into an E. coli B/r strain by circumventing the host-controlled modification and restriction incompatibilities known to exist between these closely related strains. The sexual properties of the constructed F
+
B strain and its Hfr derivatives were examined. These studies showed that the
E. coli
strain B/r F
+
and Hfr derivatives are similar to the
E. coli
strain K-12 F
+
and Hfr derivatives. However, the site of sex factor integration was found to be dependent on the host genome.
