Probing transfer of an IncP replicon to natural marine bacteria

An IncP plasmid probe (pUCV2), coding for Cm-r, Km-r and bearing Ap (am) and Tc (am) resistance determinants was constructed by transposition of Tn9 (Cm-r) onto plasmid pLM2 for an efficient selection of potential recipients among natural marine bacteria. Using a Dap- E. coli donor, transmission of...
