Conjugal transfer of transposon Tn916 from Streptococcus faecalis to Mycoplasma hominis.

M C Roberts, G E Kenny.   

Abstract

Transposon Tn916 was transferred from Streptococcus faecalis to Mycoplasma hominis by a mating process resembling conjugation with a frequency of 10(-6) to 10(-7). Tn916 was inserted into the mycoplasmal chromosome in single and multiple copies.
