Abstract
A process of genetic transfer was demonstrated with culture filtrates of a strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The evidence indicates that genetic material was transferred in association with a large particle and that the process was similar to Salmonella transduction except that in the present case it occurred spontaneously between mutants of a single strain.Keywords
