TL;DR
The origin of life on the Earth, in Proceedings of the First International Symposium, Moscow, USSR, 1957, and some Recent Developments in the Chemistry of Phosphate Esters of Biological Interest.
Abstract
Represents the sum of the classes rS6-r41 and r4l, since the two classes are phenotypically identical.§ Represents the sum of the ra and rb classes.** Estimated by isolation of transformants and replication to determine phenotype and genotype.

An examination of the effects of sonic waves on DNA solutions and the results led to an electron-microscopic investigation of sonically produced DNA fragments and to their use in the study of bacterial transformation.

162 Citations1961Cyrus Levinthal, Peter F. Davison
32 P-labeled T2 phage DNA has been subjected to controlled shear forces and the tensile force on the molecule causing scission of the double helix has been determined, showing that this rupturing force is compatible with the bond strengths.

The growth characteristics, accumulations and genetic tests carried out by means of complete transduction for over 200 independently isolated histidine-requiring (his) mutants of Salmonella typhimurium are described, consistent with the view that processes involved in intra- and inter-genic recombination are identical.

71 Citations1954Rollin D. Hotchkiss, Julius Marmur
The transformability of pneumococcal cultures appears to be the result of cyclical processes occurring in individual groups in the population, which can both be accentuated and apparently rendered more synchronous, by the conditioning effect of appropriate environmental change.

The present studies have shown that the remainder of the spontaneous streptomycin-resistant mutations isolated by BRYAN (1961) , as well as two spontaneous mutations originally isolated by SCHAEFFER (1956) , represent either allelic or closely linked markers on the same molecule of transforming DNA.

The genetic fine structure of the adenine-8 (ad-8) locus in Neurospora crassa is described, a locus at which a large number of mutants of independent origin are available and the existence of numerous distinct mutational sites within the ad-8 locus is indicated.

20 Citations1962V. N. Iyer, Arnold W. Ravin
It was noted that in the transformation of sensitive pneumococci by transforming preparations bearing linked mutations, the frequency of occurrence of the multiplymarked transformants could be greater than one of the singly marked ones and subsequent studies have confirmed these findings.

15 Citations1961Ronald Rolfe, Harriett Ephrussi-Taylor
It is known that DNA carries genetic information, and it is commonly assumed that the identity and linear order of the genes are determined by the linear sequence of nucleotides in DNA, but little is known about the detailed relationship between DNA and proteins of a given species.
