Abstract:Based on plate matings using P. putida strain BLlO as the recipient and either P.purida strain PG405 or PG125 as the donor, the transconjugant strains TKI and TK3 were obtained. These were shown to harbour a single plasmid of a molecular size comparable to that of PGH 1 (in the donor strain PG405) and pPGH I I (in the donor strain PG125), respectively. Clear-cut evidence was presented that a t least the transconjugant strain TK3 has the genetic potential of degrading phenol via both the or-tho-pathway (encoded… Show more
