NATURAL OCCURRENCE OF FOUR REVERSIBLE FLAGELLAR PHASES IN CULTURES OF SALMONELLA MIKAWASHIMA

The occurrence of three flagellar phases in Arizona serotypes.

Since Andrewes (1922) described •gspecific•h and •gnonspecific•h flagellar antigens in several Salmonella types, the diphasic state has been recognized in hundreds of Salmo nella serotypes and has been recognized also in the Arizona group (Edwards and West, 1945). Similar variations have been found in the Escherichia freundii (Citobacter) group by Edwards (1946), in the Hafnia group by Deacon (...

Natural occurrence of induced or artificial flagellar antigens in Salmonella newport.

Douglas, G. W. (Communicable Disease Center, Atlanta, Ga.), Alma C. McWhorter, and P. R. Edwards. Natural occurrence of induced or artificial flagellar antigens in Salmonella newport. J. Bacteriol. 83:348-350. 1962.-Two epidemiologically related cultures of Salmonella newport, which possessed naturally occurring artificial or induced antigens in phase 2, were studied. It was demonstrated that s...

Anomalous Homology of Flagellar Phases in Salmonellai

I? HASE-1 and phase-2 antigen types of a diphasic salmonella strain are determined by distinct genes, H, and H,, respectively (LEDERBERG and EDWARDS 1953; LEDERBERG and IINO 1956). They are nonallelic and are transduced independently. Therefore, an H-antigen type recombinant obtained by a transduction usually expresses the antigen type of the donor in one phase, but retains that of the recipien...
