Abstract excerpt
The stabilization locus parB was subcloned into the broad host range plasmid pAP2, which contains the alpha-amylase gene from Bacillus subtilis, and introduced into Xanthomonas campestris pv campestris and X.c.pv manihotis. Analysis of the stability of plasmid pAP2 (parB-) and pAP23 (parB+) showed that the parB locus decreased significantly the plasmid loss rate mainly by X.c.pv campestris. The lower efficiency...
