Abstract
Use of E. coli strains with phenotypes Rec+ and Rec- asrecipients in intergenera crosses confirmed the supposition put forward by the authors formerly that new chromosomal markers in transconjugantes originated due to Psuedomonas aeruginosa. These chromosomal markers were transferred together with plasmid R conditioning the conjugation, and maintained without being built-into E. coli chromosome. Between the arg+ marker and the plasmid R18 there existed labile physical connection demonstrable only under definite conditions of recombinant selection.
