Abstract excerpt
A screening method was used to identify Sinorhizobium meliloti mutants which are affected in stationary-phase survival. Of 20,000 individual colonies mutagenized with transposon Tn5-B20, 10 mutant strains which showed poor or no survival in the stationary phase were identified. Analyses of expression patterns of the promoterless lacZ genes in the mutant strains revealed individual induction patterns. Most strains...
