RESUMO
Aseptic isolation of the facultative gut microflora of the tobacco hornworm, Manduca sexta, yielded four microorganisms. Two were gram-positive Bacillus spp., one was Serratia plymuthica, and another was the yeast Candida guilliermondii. The three bacterial species were screened for extrachromosomal DNA, and S. plymuthica was found to have a 6.4-kilobase plasmid, which was designated pCP-1.
