The Transformation of Pneumococcal Types: I. The Conversion of R Forms of Pneumococcus into S Forms of the Homologous Type [and] II. The Interconvertibility of Type-Specific S Pneumococci
Description:
In this article, Dawson published his initial findings from experiments meant to follow-up on, and, to an extent, reproduce research on pneumococci in mice which brought about type transformation in vivo that was conducted by English microbiologist Fred Griffith.
