Distribution and evolution of nitrogen fixation genes in the phylum Bacteroidetes.

abstract：:Four hundred and fifty nine isolates of fluorescent pseudomonads were obtained from the leaves and roots of potato plants. Of these, 20 leaf isolates and 28 root isolates induced violacein production in two N-acylhomoserine lactone (AHL)-reporter strains-Chromobacterium violaceum CV026 and VIR24. VIR24 is a new report...
