Edité par CCSD ; Elsevier -

International audience. Genome rearrangements are responsible for the variability observed at the ends of the chromosome among Streptomyces species. The characterization of mutators, which are stimulated for genome plasticity, and of mutants produced at different stages of development support the idea that genome instability is developmentally modulated.
