Streptococcus pneumoniae genetic systems designed for isolation of plasmid mutants with copy-up phenotypes have been developed. The target plasmids have the pLS1 replicon, and two different strategies have been followed: (i) selection of clones exhibiting augmented resistance to antibiotics, or (...
