## Abstract The mutagenesis in phage T 7 after MMSβ, HNO~2~β, hydroxylamineβ, 5βBUdRβ, and 2βAPβtreatment in relation to host controlled functions is investigated. There was no dependence of the induction of mutations on the character of the host strains (__rec, hcr__). A back mutation system (__am

## Abstract UV induced mutagenesis of bacteriophage T 7 was investigated by using a forward mutation system (host range system) and a back mutation system (__amber__ system). The results indicate a dependence of mutation of T 7 after UV irradiation only on the __rec__ gene controlled functions of t
Most of the intracellular T4 DNA made in the presence of 9-aminoacridine is of lower molecular weight than mature T4 DNA and does not get packaged into phage particles. Using a T4 DNA transformation assay, we have examined this intracellular T4 DNA for its content of 9-aminoacridine-induced revertan
