| Abstract: | Background
Rahnella is a widely distributed genus belonging to the Enterobacteriaceae and frequently present on vegetables. Although Rahnella has interesting agro-economical and industrial properties and several strains possess antibiotic resistances and toxin genes
which might spread within microbial communities, little is known about plasmids of this genus. Thus, we isolated a number
of Rahnella strains and investigated their complements of small plasmids. |
