TOL 플라스미드와 NAH 플라스미드는 n-알칸을 자화하는 P. putida KCTC 2405에 접합에 의해 각각의 이동은 가능하나 두 플라스미드는 불화합성에 기인하여 본 균주내에 공존할 수 없었다. TOL plasmid에서 불화합성 체계는 남겨두고 tol 유전자만 이 CAM plasmid내로 transposition 되어 형성된 CAM::TOL* 플라스미드는 NAH 플라스미드와 P. putida KCTC 2405에서 공존할 수 있어 m-toluate, naphthalene, camphor 및 n-alkane(C8-C24)를 분해할 수 있는 P. putida 3SK 균주를 육종하였다. CAM::TOL* 플라스미드는 선택성 배지에서 안정하였으나 비선택성 배지에서는 불안정하였다.

TOL plsmid size of Flavobacterium odoratum SUB53 was estimated as 83 Md and the optimum concentration of m-toluate degradation by TOL plasmid was 5 mM. $H_{2}$ production by Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides KCTC1425 was largely dependent on nitrogenase activity and showed the highest at 30 mM malate with 7 mM glutamate as nitrogen source. Nitrogenase activities were inhibited by 0.3 mM $NH_{4}^{+}$ions, to be appeared the decrease of $H_{2}$ production. Conjugation of TOL plasmids from F. odoratum SUB53 and Pseudomonas putida mt-2 to R. sphaeroides showed the optimum at the exponential stage of recipient cells in presence of helper plasmid pRK2013. According to the investigation of catechol-1,2-oxygenase (C-1, 2-O) and catechol-2,3-oxygenase (C-2,3-O) activities of R. sphaeroides C1 (TOL SUB53) and C2 (TOL mt-2), the gene for C-2,3-O is located on TOL plasmid and gene for C-1, 2-O on the chromosome of R. sphaeroides. m-Toluate was biodegraded by TOL plasmid in R. sphaeroides C1 and C2, presumably to be produced $H_{2}$ gas from the secondary metabolites of m-toluate.e.
