Abstract

SUMMARY

Mycobacteriophage B04 grown on the indicator host strain SN203 was restricted and modified by HR. Phage B04.HR was restricted and modified by the alternate host SN 203. strain Myc 1025 was described as a rm isolate. By using the mycobacterial prototype strains for phage typing wild isolates, it was demonstrated that only the modified phage B04.HR was a potential typing phage.
