Effect of temperature-induced membrane lipid phase transition in recipient cells on conjugation in Escherichia coli K-12

For the unsaturated fatty acid auxotroph (fabB⁻) strain K1059, conditions have been found which allow for maintenance of viability following inhibition of cell growth by.a temperature-induced membrane lipid phase transition. In matings with a F-like, R-factor donor, strain K1059 demonstrated a measu...
