A novel screening method for isolating exopolysaccharide-deficient mutants

A screening method based on differential staining of the wild type and exopolysaccharide-deficient mutants of Rhizobium (Sinorhizobium) meliloti by the lipophilic dye Sudan Black B is described. Mutants defective in the production of either succinoglycan or EPS II (galactoglucan) were isolated by us...
