Abstract From the Canadian patent

A method for imparting phage resistance to phage sensitive strains of Streptococcus group N is described. The method involves transferring plasmid encoding for production of a mucoid substance (Muc+) into the phage sensitive strain. Even if the Muc+ plasmid is removed by curing at elevated temperatures the strains remain resistant to phage. The resulting resistant strains are novel and are used for fermentations, particularly milk fermentations.
