Conjugational transfer and survival of plasmid encoding silver and antibiotic resistance genes of Acinetobacter baumannii BL54, E. coli K12 J53.2 transconjugants and pseudomonas transformants in different soil microcosms

In this investigation we tried to transfer plasmid encoded silver and antibiotic resistance genes from Acinetobacter baumannii BL54 to E. coli k12 J53.2 and Pseudomonas (a soil microflora) by conjugation and transformation in different soil microcosms and study the survival of the isolated bacterium in each soil. Clay loam, fine clay, sandy and clay soils were collected from different area of...
