Where can I get information about the genotypes and phenotypes of common E. coli strains and yeast strains used in molecular genetics?
• Miller, J. H. 1992. A short course in bacterial genetics: A laboratory manual and handbook for Escherichia coli and related bacteria. Cold Spring Harbor Press, Cold Spring Harbor, New York. This book contains much information about E. coli strains and how to acquire them. • Bachmann, B. J. 1990. Linkage map of Escherichia coli K-12, Edition 8. Microbiol. Rev. 54:130-197. This reference provides detailed descriptions of many E. coli strains: • “Derivations and Genotypes of Some Mutant Derivatives of _Escherichia coli_ K12”. Chapter 72 (pp 1190-1224) in volume 2 of _Escherichia coli and Salmonella Typhimurium. Cellular and molecular biology_, edited by F. C. Neidhardt et al. Publ by American Society for Microbiology, Washington, D.C., 1987. • You can write to Barbara Bachmann to order strains or just to get more information. She is very helpful in finding the particular strains for your needs. You can also get information by E-mail to mary@fetalpig.biology.yale.edu. Each bacterial stra
