Abstract
Sarcina flava ATCC 540 (ade) and Micrococcus flavocyaneus ATCC 8673 (ade), two related micrococci, were transformed to prototrophy at frequencies as high as 0·02% and 0·005% of colony-forming units, respectively. Both of these organisms were transformed by selected prototrophic strains of Micrococcus lysodeikticus, M. flavocyaneus, S. flava and Sarcina lutea.Keywords
