The UV-inducible prophage J51 has been mapped late on the chromosome of P. aeruginosa strain PAO, relative to the entry point of the sex factor FP2. This was determined following the analysis of the segregation of unselected markers in conjugational crosses between appropriately marked donor and recipient strains. A more precise location of about 50 min was obtained from the kinetics of increase in infectious centres due to zygotic induction during interrupted mating experiments.
