Abstract：
:Seventy-eight bacterial isolates from human, animal, and plant hosts, representing eight species of the family Enterobacteriaceae, were screened for F-like plasmid sequences. Of the examined human Escherichia coli strains, 28% harbored one or two of the three F-like, RepFI replication regions, while 35% of the examined animal and all phytopathogenic strains harbored RepFIA-specific sequences. Comparative analysis of Salmonella, Shigella, Erwinia, and E. coli plasmid RepFI sequences showed 100% or very high homology, indicating frequent and recent interspecies gene transfer. The high incidence of RepFIA sequences in enteric bacterial species, including Klebsiella and Erwinia, showed that F-like plasmids are successful in avoiding natural barriers to establishment of horizontally transferred DNA and that in the natural environment conjugal transfer is efficient in diverse ecological niches.
