Abstract

Two new and independently isolated catabolic plasmids coding for the degradation of naphthalene have been characterized in strains of Both plasmids are transmissible, belong to the P9 incompatibility group and code for naphthalene degradation via salicylate and catechol, then by the catechol -cleavage pathway.
