Homology among nearly all plasmids infecting three Bacillus species.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jan 1996

Zawadzki P, Riley M A, Cohan F M

Abstract excerpt

We have surveyed naturally occurring plasmids in strains of Bacillus subtilis and the closely related species B. mojavensis and B. licheniformis. Previous studies have failed to find host-benefitting functions for plasmids of these species, suggesting that these plasmids are nonmutualistic. Only...
