Abstract

The guanine-plus-cytosine contents of and deoxyribonucleic acids were determined after the deoxyribonucleic acids were purified by gel chromatography. In addition, both species were tested for the production of phenylacetic acid. The guanine-plus-cytosine content of . deoxyribonucleic acid was 50 to 52 mol%, and that of . deoxyribonucleic acid was 38 to 40 mol%. Both species produced phenylacetic acid.
