The in vivo chemical linkage of Haemophilus parainfluenzae deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) with the H. influenzae genome has been found to occur at a much higher level than is suggested by the low efficiency of the heterospecific transformation of an antibiotic resistance marker. This linkage, about 60% of the level with homospecific DNA, was found to involve alkali-stable bonding. The amount of host DNA label released (about 60%) was about the same as that released during homospecific transformation. Also, over 60% of the H. influenzae cells adsorbing H. parainfluenzae DNA could not form colonies upon plating. This lethality of the heterospecific transformation was not immediate but followed considerable metabolic activity of the host cells. These data are presented to show that the "limited-pairing" hypothesis may be only a partial explanation for the low efficiency of heterospecific transformation. Another hypothesis is presented which takes into account the lethal effect of this kind of transformation.
