PromA Plasmids Are Instrumental in the Dissemination of Linuron Catabolic Genes Between Different Genera
PromA plasmids are broad host range (BHR) plasmids, which are often cryptic and hence have an uncertain ecological role. We present three novel PromA γ plasmids which carry genes associated with degradation of the phenylurea herbicide linuron, two of which originated from unrelated Hydrogenophaga ho...
