Abstract
When pBR322 plasmid-harboring Escherichia coli strains RR1 or chi1776 were grown in the presence of 1 mg of uridine or cytidine per ml and later treated with chloramphenicol, as much as three times more plasmid deoxyribonucleic acid was recovered than would normally be obtained by routine plasmid amplification procedures.
