Abstract
From F+ strains of Salmonella typhimurium, isolates were obtained representing two new classes of Hfr strains, HfrK1 and HfrK2, in which the insertion of the F factor into the rfa genes results in chromosome mobilization either clockwise or anticlockwise from rfa, and in the Rfa phenotype. The point of insertion of the F factor into the cluster of rfa genes, revealed by studies of the early transfer of their normal alleles, is as follows: xyl-cysE-rfa-657 (HfrK2-1, SA540 →)–(← HfrK1-1, SA458)–rfaG-(← HfrK1-2, SA464)–pyrE-metA
