Abstract excerpt
Four Tn5-induced mutants of Rhizobium meliloti WSM419 were unable to grow or maintain intracellular pH at an external pH of 5.6. Restriction analysis of DNA fragments carrying Tn5 and flanking sequences cloned from these mutants indicated that all four cloned mutations are unique and that the two strains (TG1-6 and TG1-11) carry Tn5 insertions which are within 4.4 kilobases of each other on a single EcoRI...
