Abstract

A plasmid selected from PA1 (a) a plasmid conferring resistance to tetracyline (Tc.sup.r) and neomycin (Neo.sup.r) on a host, and being built up by the in vitro ligation of a Neo.sup.r non-chimeric plasmid and a Tc.sup.r non-chimeric plasmid, PA1 (b) a deletion, insertion or deletion/insertion derivative of a group (a) plasmid, or PA1 (c) a rearrangement derivative of a group (a) or group (b) plasmid are disclosed. The host may be a Bacillus, particularly Bacillus subtilis.
