Annotation:

Author: Joshua Lederberg. Date Written: July 16, 1998. KW: P305; Cold Spring Harbor; P269; Cold Spring Harbor; July 1946 The first presentation of data on genetic recombination in E. coli K-12. The exact date is uncertain: probably Thursday -- See P305 for elaboration. It had the great advantages of a forum where every criticism could be thrashed out, rather than left to innuendo as it diffused through the critical scientific community. Cf P-266. The terminology was daunting; but we had not yet standardized on say phe for phenyl- alanine; so I was using PHI instead. jl 7/16/98
