Stability, frequency and multiplicity of transposon insertions in the pyoverdine region in the chromosomes of different fluorescent pseudomonads.

Tn5 mutagenesis of different fluorescent pseudomonads was achieved by conjugational transfer of the suicide vector pSUP 10141. Pyoverdine negative (Pvd-) mutants were detected by the absence of fluorescence on King's B medium and by their inability to grow in the presence of the iron chelator EDDHA [ethylenediamine di(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid)]. In P. fluorescens ATCC 17400 and three rhizosphere isolates (one P. putida and two P. fluorescens), the percentage of Pvd- mutants ranged between 0 and 0.54%. In a P. chlororaphis rhizosphere isolate, this percentage was higher (4%). In these mutants both of the Tn5 antibiotic resistances (Km and Tc) were stable and the transposon could be detected by hybridization. In Pvd- mutants of P. fluorescens ATCC 17400, the transposon was found to be inserted twice in the chromosome while single insertions were detected in the DNA of other, randomly tested mutants. In P. aeruginosa PAO1, where 13.1% of the mutants were Pvd-, both antibiotic resistances were rapidly lost and accordingly no transposon insertion could be detected by hybridization. However, the Pvd- phenotype was generally stable in these mutants. The plasmid pNK862 containing a mini-Tn10 transposon was introduced by electroporation into P. aeruginosa PAO1 and Kmr mutants were recovered, 89% of which were Pvd- and confirmed to be P. aeruginosa by PCR amplification of the P. aeruginosa lipoprotein gene. The mini-Tn10 insertions were also found to be unstable in PAO1.
