Abstract
An R factor from
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
, which confers resistance to penicillins, kanamycin, and tetracycline, was studied in
Escherichia coli
K-12. The R factor could coexist with F-like or I-like plasmids and therefore constituted a novel compatibility group. The R factor was transferable from
E. coli
to bacterial genera outside the
Enterobacteriaceae (Pseudomonas
and members of the
Rhizobiaceae
) to which transfer of F-like and I-like plasmids could not be demonstrated.
