Abstract: Determinant genes controlling biofilm formation in a plant commensal bacterium, Pseudomonas protegens Pf-5, were identified by transposon mutagenesis. Comprehensive screening of 7500 transposon-inserted mutants led to the isolation of four mutants exhibiting decreased and five… read more here.
