Diversification of Pseudomonas corrugata 2140 produces new phenotypes altered in GC-FAME, BIOLOG, and in vitro inhibition profiles and taxonomic identification.

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria are known to rapidly produce new phenotypes, but it is unclear how phenotype "plasticity" relates to studies on the population ecology of bacteria in complex environments. We characterised a collection of 14 spontaneous phenotype variants, derived from in vitro and in vivo cultures (wheat roots) of Pseudomonas corrugata 2140, using fatty acid methyl ester profiles (GC-FAME), carbon substrate utilisation...
