Molecular genetics of Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1: Genome structure, plasmid characterization and chromosome transfer

Abstract

dc:description

Physical mapping techniques were employed to construct both a physical and genetic maps of the Rhodobacter sphaeroides 2.4.1 genome. It was found that this α-purple, nonsulfur photosynthetic bacterium carries two different circular chromosomes whose sizes are 3046 $\pm$ 95 and 914 $\pm$ 17 kb in addition to five endogenous plasmids with a total size of approximately 450 kb.
