Cloning and Characterization of Four Genes of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii Involved in Exopolysaccharide Production and Nodulation

Four different genes of Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. tri-folii strain RBL5599 involved in exopolysaccharide (EPS) production were identified by complementation of Tn5-induced EPS-deficient mutants (Exo mutants) with a cosmid bank. On one cosmid pssA was located, which was found to be almost identical...
