Plasmid Maps
These plasmids are described in the linked publications. All plasmid maps are provided as read-only Benchling links. If you prefer a different cloning software, Benchlings allows exports as genbank files (.gb). If you find a broken link, or you’re looking for a vector sequence that I’ve overlooked, please email me

Parental Plasmids
Most of the plasmids I use frequently (e.g. pST-Blue, pUC18miniTn7t-Gm, & pRC* series for Ralstonia solanacearum GMI1000) are available online (PubMed or via manufacturers). However, I had to track down or reconstruct a few plasmid sequences. Those are listed below with original citations.
