Abstract:
:Contrary to its effect on rich medium, D-cycloserine showed no bactericidal effect on Zymomonas mobilis cells cultured on mineral medium. Addition of a mixture of glycine and glutamic acid to the mineral medium restored its bactericidal action. However, mutant enrichments run in these conditions were biased, with mostly methionine mutants isolated. A decrease of the D-cycloserine concentration only reduced the bias.

杂志文章abstract::Riemerella anatipestifer is the causative agent of polyserositis of ducks and geese. We have previously reported that a 3.9-kb plasmid, pCFC1, carries protein genes (vapD1 and vapD2) that are similar to virulence-associated genes of other bacteria. In the present study, we report the complete sequence of a second plas...
