Protease negative mutant of Xanthomonas campestris pathovar glycine 8ra (prt-mutant) was constructed by mutagenesis employing artificial transposon Omegon-Km. Transposon delivery was conducted through diparental conjugation using X. campestris pathovar glycine 8ra as recipient and Escherichia coli S17-1 carrying pJFF 3500 plasmid as the donor. The frequency of transconjugation was found 1.9 x 10(-7) per recipient. Enzyme analysis indicated the presence of mutant with lower protease activity than that of the wild-type. Genetic analysis employing pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) of the genomic DNA digested with AseI or SpeI restriction endonuclease could significantly differentiate X. campestris pathovar glycine 8ra prt from the wild-type parent. The 9.85 kb pLR omega 6 plasmid was constructed from the genomic DNA of the prt mutant after being digested with KpnI restriction endonuclease and ligated with T4 DNA ligase.
