Plasmid visualization and nif gene location in nitrogen-fixing Azospirillum strains.

RESUMO
A modified gel electrophoresis technique provided a reproducible way of detecting and isolating plasmids with molecular weights ranging from 12 X 10(6) to 370 X 10(6) for Azospirillum species. Analysis with the nifHD region of Rhizobium trifolii showed that the Azospirillum nif genes were chromosomally located in all eight strains investigated and not on endogenous plasmids.
