Summary

A gene bank of DNA from A.brasilense, strain Sp6, has been constructed in the single EcoRI and BgIII sites of plasmid pRK290. The vector was able to be transferred by conjugation from E.coli to A.brasilense by using the helper plasmid pRK2013 at a frequency of about 10−3per recipient cell. Clones carrying his and pyr genes have been identified by genetic complementation; the expression of A.brasilense in E.coli has been demonstrated. Keywords: gene bank, cloning, conjugation.
