Association of tellurium resistance and bacteriophage inhibition conferred by R plasmids

Association of tellurium resistance and bacteriophage inhibition conferred by R plasmids

D E Taylor et al. J Bacteriol. 1979 Mar.

Abstract

Concomitant resistance to tellurium compounds (Ter) and inhibition of coli-phage development (Phi) are properties mediated by many H2 incompatibility group R plasmids which have been isolated from diverse bacterial and geographic sources. Ter plasmids from tellurium-resistant bacteria that were isolated from sewage and industrial wastes also mediated phage inhibition. Of these Ter plasmids, three from Citrobacter freundii belonged to the H incompatibility group, whereas three from Klebsiella pneumoniae did not.
