Abstract excerpt
Rhizobium tropici, a member of the Rhizobiaceae family, has the ability to synthesize and secrete extracellular polysaccharides (EPS). Rhizobial EPS have attracted much attention from the scientific and industrial communities. Rhizobial isolates and R. tropici mutants that produced higher levels of EPS than the wild-type strain SEMIA4080 were used in the present study. The results suggested a heteropolymer...
