[Effect of cultivation temperature on the extrachromosomal hereditary factors of the causative agent of melioidosis].
The cultivation temperature of Burkholderia pseudomallei has been shown to determine both the direction of morphological dissociation and the prophage induction rate. Inheriting plasmid replicons was found to depend on the temperature conditions during the growth of these bacteria. No influence of B. pseudomallei plasmids pPM1 and pCM2 on the lysogenic state of the bacterial cell and the formation of different B. pseudomallei variants was noted.
