Bacillus subtilis were x-irradiated before and after centrifugal separation of cells in a Renografin density gradient. 1)re-competent cultures have no cells at the radiosensitivity of the cells in the bulk competent culture, but there is a substantial fraction of cells in a multi-target state, with
Using a new method to get stable steady state levels of competence in B. subtilis, we have obtained in our experimental conditions 0.1% competence as determined by the frequency of transfection with phage SPP1 DNA. The effect of growth rate (DT) and certain amino acids on the competence levels was a
