Abstract
The effect of nalidixic acid on the growth of various deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) bacteriophages has been investigated by one-step growth experiments. The
Escherichia coli
bacteriophages T5, λ, T7 and φR are strongly inhibited by nalidixic acid, whereas T4 and T2 are only partially inhibited. The
Bacillus subtilis
bacteriophages SP82, SP50, and φ29 are relatively unaffected by nalidixic acid. There is no correlation between those bacteriophages which can grow in the presence of nalidixic acid and the presence of an unusual base in the phage DNA.
