A Conjugative 38 kB Plasmid Is Present in Multiple Subspecies of Xylella fastidiosa

A similar to 38kB plasmid (pXF-RIV5) was present in the Riv5 strain of Xylella fastidiosa subsp. multiplex isolated from ornamental plum in southern California. The complete nucleotide sequence of ...

Conjugative Plasmid Transfer in Xylella fastidiosa Is Dependent on tra and trb Operon Functions

The insect-transmitted plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa is capable of efficient horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and recombination. Natural transformation occurs at high rates in X. fastidiosa, but ...

The complete nucleotide sequence and environmental distribution of the cryptic, conjugative, broad-host-range plasmid pIPO2 isolated from bacteria of the wheat rhizosphere

Plasmid pIPO2 is a cryptic, conjugative, broad-host-range plasmid isolated from the wheat rhizosphere. it efficiently self-transfers between alpha, beta and gamma Proteobacteria and has a mobilizin...

The prevalence and diversity of mobile genetic elements in bacterial communities of different environmental habitats: insights gained from different methodological approaches

The pool of mobile genetic elements (MGE) in microbial communities consists of plasmids, bacteriophages and other elements that are either self-transmissible or use mobile plasmids and phages as ve...
