Abstract excerpt
The bioluminescent reporter strain Pseudomonas fluorescens HK44 with a nah-lux fusion, was used to investigate the effect of root material (from hybrid poplars, willow, kou, milo, Osage orange, mulberry, and switch grass) and potential root-derived substrates (e.g., sugars, carboxylic acids, amino acids, and phenolics) on the expression of nahG, one of the genes responsible for naphthalene dioxygenase...
