Design of a rapid screening technique for identification of Shewanella Oneidensis nitrate-reductant deficient mutants
Shewanella oneidensisis is an important model organism for bioremediation studies and electrical generation because of its diverse respiratory capabilities, conferred in part by multicomponent, branched electron transport systems. A rapid mutant screening technique was developed to identify S. oneid...
