Mutations in ams genes of Erwinia amylovora affect the interactions with host plants.
1998-04-01
Abstract excerpt
A large region for exopolysaccharide (EPS) production that is involved in the pathogenicity of Erwinia amylovora strain CFBP1430, cloned previously, was further characterized in this study. An 8.4 Kb-long sub-cloned fragment from that ams (amylovoran synthesis) region was mutagenized in vitro by Tn3Gus insertion. Several new chromosomal mutants were obtained by marker exchange. The phenotype of those mutants was d...
