Abstract excerpt

Bradyrhizobium japonicum (R110d) exhibited four saccharide-specific binding activities: (a) adsorption to Sepharose beads containing covalently coupled lactose; (b) homotypic agglutination through one pole of the cell (star formation); (c) heterotypic adhesion to the cultured soybean cell line, S...
