✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Strains deficient in recombinational repair (recA^−^) failed to be reverted by MNNG. Caffeine was found to efficiently repress MNNG‐induced reversions with proficient and deficient (uvrB^−^) excision repair strains. The presence of the resistance plasmid pKM 101 had no influence on the effectiveness of caffeine.
