Exogenous isolation of mobilizing plasmids from polluted soils and sludges.
Exogenous plasmid isolation was used to assess the presence of mobilizing plasmids in several soils and activated sludges. Triparental matings were performed with Escherichia coli (a member of the gamma subgroup of the Proteobacteria) as the donor of an IncQ plasmid (pMOL155, containing the heavy metal resistance genes czc: Co, Zn, and Cd), Alcaligenes eutrophus (a member of the beta subgroup o...
متن کاملIsolation of novel IncA/C and IncN fluoroquinolone resistance plasmids from an antibiotic-polluted lake.
OBJECTIVES Antibiotic-polluted environments may function as reservoirs for novel resistance plasmids not yet encountered in pathogens. The aims of this study were to assess the potential of resistance transfer between bacteria from such environments and Escherichia coli, and to characterize the conjugative elements involved. METHODS Sediment samples from Kazipally lake and Asanikunta tank, tw...
متن کاملPhytoextraction of heavy metal polluted soils using Sedum plumbizincicola inoculated with metal mobilizing Phyllobacterium myrsinacearum RC6b.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of metal mobilizing plant-growth beneficial bacterium Phyllobacterium myrsinacearum RC6b on plant growth and Cd, Zn and Pb uptake by Sedum plumbizincicola under laboratory conditions. Among a collection of metal-resistant bacteria, P. myrsinacearum RC6b was specifically chosen as a most favorable metal mobilizer based on its capability of mob...
متن کاملIsolation, characterization, and transfer of cryptic gene-mobilizing plasmids in the wheat rhizosphere.
A set of self-transmissible plasmids with IncQ plasmid-mobilizing capacity was isolated by triparental exogenous isolation from the wheat rhizosphere with an Escherichia coli IncQ plasmid host and a Ralstonia eutropha recipient. Three plasmids of 38 to 45 kb, denoted pIPO1, pIPO2, and pIPO3, were selected for further study. No selectable traits (antibiotic or heavy-metal resistance) were identi...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of plasmids from Streptomyces.
In view of the importance of actinomycetes in the production of antibiotics, it would be useful to find plasmids in these organisms in order to construct molecular breeding systems. Since the first discovery of plasmid involvement in antibiotic production", several plasmids associated with the production of antibiotics have been found in Streptomyces (references are listed in AKAGAWA et al.-')....
