Abstract excerpt
R. meliloti Rm1021 normally produces an acidic Calcofluor-binding exopolysaccharide, called succinoglycan or EPS I, which is required for successful nodulation of alfalfa by this strain. At least 13 loci affecting production of EPS I were previously mapped to a cluster on the second of two symbio...
