Abstract

The aim of the present work was to construct a replication map of the chromosome of Mycobacterium phlei. The method of mutagenesis of the replication point by means of nitrosoguanidine was applied to synchronously multiplying populations. Back mutations and forward mutations were induced in auxotrophic mutants PA met and PA leu as well as in double auxotrophic mutants with methionine as the reference marker and the following order of replication of eleven genes on the chromosome was thus established: leu-Eth, Res-Stm, Cyk-pur-met, arg, Cyk-Bac-inl.
