Abstract excerpt
Avirulence gene D (avrD) in strain PT23 of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) specifies the production of syringolides, which are elicitors of plant defense reactions. An 83-kb indigenous plasmid (pPT23B) that carries avrD has been mapped and characterized and a putative par region was identified. pPT23B contains a large amount of DNA that is repeated in other native plasmids in PT23. A putative mobile...
