An integrating plasmid has been used to mutagenise the gene coding for endo‐β‐1,3‐1,4‐glucanase of Bacillus subtilis . The gene, named bgl , has been mapped by PBS‐1 transduction to the sacA‐pureA region of the B. subtilis chromosome and is closely linked to the hutP 1 locus. The order of markers in this region is sacA 321‐ thiC 5‐ bgl ‐ hutP 1‐ purA 16.
