Exopolysaccharide II Production Is Regulated by Salt in the Halotolerant Strain Rhizobium meliloti EFB1

The halotolerant strain Rhizobium meliloti EFB1 modifies the production of extracellular polysaccharides in response to salt. EFB1 colonies grown in the presence of 0.3 M NaCl show a decrease in mucoidy, and in salt-supplemented liquid medium this organism produces 40% less exopolysaccharides. We is...
