R Factor Transfer in Rhizobium leguminosarum
Abstract
SUMMARY: R factors of the compatibility class P were transferred between strains of Escherichia coli k12 and Rhizobium leguminosarum. These R factors were stable in R. leguminosarum and conferred similar levels of antibiotic resistance to those in the corresponding R+ E. coli k12 hosts, with the exception of carbenicillin resistance which was greatly reduced. Transfer between R. leguminosarum strains was by conjugation and was stimulated by conditions favouring spheroplast formation. R factor mediated recombination could not be demonstrated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
