Artificial citrate operon confers mineral phosphate solubilization ability to diverse fluorescent pseudomonads.

Citric acid is a strong acid with good cation chelating ability and can be very efficient in solubilizing mineral phosphates. Only a few phosphate solubilizing bacteria and fungi are known to secrete citric acids. In this work, we incorporated artificial citrate operon containing NADH insensitive ci...
