Rich-
I recommend a lab manual written by Stanley R. Maloy, a bacterial
geneticist at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. The title of
the manual is "Experimental Techniques in Bacterial Genetics," Jones and
Bartlett publishers. The book is an excellent lab manual as well as source
of reference, endorsed by Ph.d.'s from Harvard Medical School, Cornell, and
Case Western. The manual is used for an upper level bacterial genetics
course (MCBIO 317) here at the University of Illinois. As far as a
textbook goes, "Genes IV" or "Genes V" might work for you. Hope this has
helped to some extent for you.
