The plates were then observed for the presence of the transconjugants, which were then biochemically identified. |
|
After overnight incubation the transconjugants were replica plated onto the same selective medium, omitting the other growth factors or substituting arabinose for glucose. |
|
Fitness estimates are complicated, in principle, by segregants and transconjugants that arise during competitions between plasmid-bearing and plasmid-free cells. |
|
The resulting plasmids were conjugated into the respective mutants of M. extorquens and the transconjugants tested for the ability to grow on methanol. |
|
Transconjugants were then selected on Luria-Bertani agar plates containing sodium azide and nalidixic acid. |
