Transfer-deficient derivatives of pDU202 (a Tcs deletion mutant of R100-1) caused by the insertion of Tn10 into the R factor's transfer genes have been described previously. Tetracyline-sensitive mutants of four of these were selected. In the majority of cases the Tcs mutation was caused by a deleti
