title: Replicon typing of plasmids of phytopathogenic xanthomonads.
abstract: Replicon types of plasmids of phytopathogenic Xanthomonads have been identified. Plasmids of Xanthomonas oryzae pathovar oryzae belonged to types RepP, RepW, RepY, RepU, and RepF1 and 50% of the plasmids of different isolates of X.o.pv.oryzae belonged to type RepP. X.c.pv.citri contained plasmids belonging to RepF1 and RepF11. Of the 19 replicon probes used, only 9 (repP, repF1, repF11, repY, repQ, repW, repX, and repU) hybridized with various plasmids of Xanthomonas.
