Abstract:
A physical map of the Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli var. fuscans BXPF65 chromosome was constructed by PFGE and Southern hybridization. The chromosome was 3938 kb and was composed of 39 XbaI restriction fragments. The size is close to that estimated for X. campestris pv. campestris based on DNA renaturation kinetics. Macrorestriction fragments containing genes for a 16S rRNA, pectate lyase, two-component regulatory system and hrp cluster were located on the physical map. Each of these probes hybridized to single macrorestriction fragments except the 16S rRNA probe, which hybridized to five fragments located in different areas on the chromosome map.

Chromosome Structure
The centromere is a DNA sequence that links sister chromatids. This is also where kinetochores, protein complexes to which spindle microtubules attach, are constructed after the chromosome is replicated. The kinetochores allow the spindle microtubules to move the chromosomes within the cell during cell division.
Telomeres consist of non-coding repetitive nucleotide...

LBCs are made up of two pairs of conjugating homologous chromatids. Each chromatid consists of alternatively positioned regions of condensed-inactive chromatin and loosely placed-active side loops, which can be contracted and extended. The loops resemble the...
