The extent and phenotype of acriflavin-resistant rII deletions have been examined. The properties of these deletions confirm that acriflavin resistance may result from a loss of function at the ac locus and that the ac locus coincides with the rII distal portion of the dispensable region which is adjacent to the rIIB cistron.
