Abstract excerpt

Twenty-seven carbazole-utilizing bacterial strains were isolated from environmental samples, and were classified into 14 groups by amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis. Southern hybridization analyses showed that 3 and 17 isolates possessed the car gene homologs of Pseudomonas resinovorans CA10 and Sphingomonas sp. strain KA1, respectively. Of the 17 isolates, 2 isolates also have the homolog of the carAa...
