Abstract excerpt
We have recently obtained strong genetic evidence that the acidic Calcofluor-binding exopolysaccharide (EPS I) of Rhizobium meliloti Rm1021 is required for nodule invasion and possibly for later events in nodule development. Thirteen loci on the second megaplasmid have been identified that are re...
