- Description:
- In this response to Wyatt's earlier article, Lederberg took exception to the contention that Avery's work on pneumococcal transformation was not well recognized in the decade following the 1944 report. If anything, Lederberg argued, it was the oversight of the work of Fred Griffith in 1928, which was noted only in passing in the Wyatt article, that should be explored in greater detail.
