Ten markers have been investigated for their times of entry into auxotrophic mutants of P. aeruginosa strain 1. Using this information and unselected marker analysis two linkage groups have been demonstrated. The results could be accounted for by assuming that there were two chromosomes or that a third linkage group was involved, but we cannot distinguish between these two hypotheses at the present time.
