Abstract: | Gene constructions rendering bacteria resistant to arsenic and capable of dissolving phosphates and/or arsenates were created by cloning ars operon and the gene of citrate synthase from a chromosome of the strain Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1. Genetically modified variants of the strain Pseudomonas aureofaciens BS1393 have been constructed, which are resistant to high concentrations of arsenic and dissolve poorly soluble phosphates and/or arsenates. Recombinant strains P. aureofaciens BS1393(pUCP22::arsRBC) and P. aureofaciens BS1393(pUCP22::gltA) exerted positive effects on the survival of sorgo (Sorghum saccharatum L.) and its ability to accumulate arsenic. |
