Abstract excerpt
It has been shown that mutants of Erwinia carotovora subsp. carotovora (ECA) resistant to mitomycin C could be characterized by the change of colonies morphology, sensitivity to bacteriocins, and by the change of pathogeneity. It is supposed that mutations responsible for the stability to mitomycin C touch the synthesis of cell membranes components. In some cases MCr-mutations caused cardinal changes--the loss of...
