Laklad iiikrobiologii C2 INSTYTUT BOTANICZNY le UNIWERSYTETU WROCLAWSKIEGO Wroctar, dnia 8 Mart WROCLAW, KANONIA 6/8 Professor Dr. J. Lederberg, Department of Genetics, University of Wisconsin, Madison 6, Wisconsin, U.S.A. Dear Professor Lederberg; I hope to be able to visit your country after the Con- gress of Genetics in Montreal during the autumn of this year. It would be a great pleasure to meet you then. I should appreciate very much zf your kind agreement for my visit in your laboratory. Be it possible I should suggest a month stay in your Department during September. I am greatly interested in our methods of research in the field of recombination and transduction in bacteria. My own experience in recom- bination is rather meagre. By the way - I have found that semi-permanent resistance to low concentration of strepto- mycin,induced by cooling,is not transfered during recombi- nation.The high resistant mtants appearing later have on the other hand transmissible characters. This my visit is planed with the help of the Rockefeller Foundation. I will be very obliged to you for informing me whether my visit at suggested term may be approved by you. With kindest regards, Sincerely Yours, Dr. Wi. Kunicki-Gofofinger
