Figure 1

EcoRI (a) and EcoT22I (b) restriction fragments of the plasmid types of R. equi isolates of intermediate virulence. Lanes 1, strain A2 (plasmid type 1); lanes 2, strain S2 (plasmid type 2); lanes 3, strain S3 (plasmid type 3); lanes 4, strain S4 (plasmid type 4); lanes 5, strain A5 (plasmid type 5); lanes 6, strain S6 (plasmid type 6); lanes 7, strain S7 (plasmid type 7); lanes 8, strain S8 (plasmid type 8); lanes 9, strain S9 (plasmid type 9); lanes 10, strain A11 (plasmid type 10); lanes 11, strain A43 (plasmid type 11); lanes 12, strain 70 (plasmid type 12); lanes 13, strain H3 (plasmid type 13); lanes 14, strain H25 (plasmid type 14); lanes 15, strain H43 (plasmid type 15); lanes 16, strain H66 (plasmid type 16); lanes 17, strain 316 (plasmid type 17); lanes 18, new strain (plasmid type 18). The markers (lanes M) are HindIII digestion products of bacteriophage λ DNA.
