Abstract excerpt
We have purified and characterized the nodulation factors produced by Rhizobium tropici CIAT899. This strain produces a large variety of nodulation factors, these being a mixture of sulfated or nonsulfated penta- or tetra-chito-oligosaccharides to which any of six different fatty acyl moieties may be attached to nitrogen of the nonreducing terminal residue. In this mixture we have also found methylated or...
