Effect of CF on the growth (A) and stability of the pceA gene (B) of D. hafniense strain TCE1 in comparison with D. hafniense strain Y51, and genetic rearrangement of the pce gene cluster (C). OD₆₆₀, optical density at 660 nm (A). Eco RI-digested DNA (1 μg) was loaded into each lane of an agarose gel for Southern blot analysis (B). Representation of the pce gene clusters of strains TCE1 and Y51 were derived from the sequences of GenBank accession numbers AJ439608 and AY706985, respectively.
