  • Title: [Comparative characterization of the conjugation capacity and large plasmids in native strains of Bacillus subtilis from different regions of the east European plain].

    Abstract:
    The properties of large plasmids harbored by Bacillus subtilis strains isolated from soils of Moscow and Moscow oblast and from different regions of the Republic of Belarus have been studied. All large plasmids in the collection of strains from Belarus were capable of conjugative mobilization of the small plasmid pUB110 and were similar in size and other properties. Most of the tested plasmids harbored by strains isolated from Moscow soils had no mobilization ability; they were of different sizes and showed no homology with the replication region of plasmids from the Belarussian collection. The uniformity of the plasmids present in strains from Belarussian soils may be due to their active horizontal transfer under natural conditions.
