Abstract
Conjugal transfer of chromosomal genes was shown to occur in oil-degrading strains of Acinetobacter lwoffi. High co-inheritance frequencies of auxotrophic makers inconjugation experiments suggested linkage relationships amongst the, trp and arg loci. The significance of gene transfer in Acinetobacter species was discussed.
