Effect of transposon-induced motility mutations on colonization of the host light organ by Vibrio fischeri.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 1994

Graf J, Dunlap P V, Ruby E G

Abstract excerpt

Vibrio fischeri is found both as a free-living bacterium in seawater and as the specific, mutualistic light organ symbiont of several fish and squid species. To identify those characteristics of symbiosis-competent strains that are required for successful colonization of the nascent light organ of juvenile Euprymna scolopes squids, we generated a mutant pool by using the transposon Mu dI 1681 and screened this...
