Bacteriophages SPP1, 41c, 22a, rho 15 and SF6 of Bacillus subtilis share a common and specific host receptor site for adsorption. Experiments described here have established the relatedness between these phages. They were indistinguishable on the basis of host-range, plating efficiency, various growth parameters and serological properties. In addition, they shared the ability to carry out generalized transduction. They could be differentiated, however, by the restriction patterns of their DNAs, with the exception of 41c and 22a, which seemed to be identical. Recombination between 41c and SPP1 was demonstrated by transfection with mixed digests of their DNAs.
枯草芽孢杆菌的噬菌体SPP1、41c、22a、rho 15和SF6具有共同且特定的宿主吸附受体位点。本文所述实验确定了这些噬菌体之间的相关性。基于宿主范围、平板效率、各种生长参数和血清学特性，它们无法区分。此外，它们都具有进行普遍性转导的能力。然而，除了似乎相同的41c和22a之外，它们可通过DNA的限制酶切图谱进行区分。通过用它们DNA的混合酶切产物进行转染，证明了41c和SPP1之间的重组。
