  1. Mean transformation frequencies (with standard errors) are shown for three separate transformations of M. hyopneumoniae strain 232 using plasmid constructs pMHWT-1, pMHWT-2 and pMHC9-1 in two separate experiments. In experiment 1, 106 CFU were transformed with each plasmid while in experiment 2, 108 CFU were transformed.
