The Rhizobium etli argC Gene Is Essential for Arginine Biosynthesis and Nodulation of Phaseolus vulgaris

A Tn5-induced mutant strain (CTNUX5) of Rhizobium etli unable to grow with ammonium as the sole nitrogen source was isolated and characterized. Sequence analysis showed that Tn5 is inserted into an argC-homologous gene. Unlike its wild-type parent (strain CE3), the mutant strain CTNUX5 had an absolu...
