title: finO sequences on conjugally repressed and derepressed F-like plasmids.
abstract: DNA-DNA hybridization studies have demonstrated the physical relatedness of the fertility inhibition gene, finO, among both FinO+ and FinO- F-like conjugative plasmids, viz. ColV2-K94, R100-1,R1drd19,R1,R6-5, UCR123, R386, p307, R453, R773, and pIP162-1. Furthermore, the data indicate that finO sequences on the FinO- plasmid ColV2-K94 map downstream of the transfer region, within 93.6-95.3 ColV2-K94.
