Novel roles of Bacillus thuringiensis to control plant diseases.

abstract：:Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a ubiquitous polysaccharide found in humans, animals, bacteria, algae and molluscs. Simple yet sophisticated, HA demonstrates unique and valuable rheological properties. In solution, HA behaves as a stiffened random coil and the resultant behaviour, even at low concentrations, is far from Newto...
