Genes that influence swarming motility and biofilm formation in Variovorax paradoxus EPS.

Genes that influence swarming motility and biofilm formation in Variovorax paradoxus EPS.

Variovorax paradoxus is an aerobic soil bacterium associated with important biodegradative processes in nature. We use V. paradoxus EPS to study multicellular behaviors on surfaces.We recovered flanking sequence from 123 clones in a Tn5 mutant library, with insertions in 29 different genes, selected...
