Bergman K, Nulty E, Su L H
Abstract excerpt
The previously cloned DNA fragment which complements the behavioral defects of the che-1 and che-3 mutations of Rhizobium meliloti codes for two nearly identical (93%) flagellin genes. A wild-type copy of one of the two genes (flaA) but not the other (flaB) can complement the mutations. The behavior and flagellar morphology of newly isolated strains carrying insertion and deletion mutations or various...
