The Roles Of Ferric Uptake Regulator (Fur) For Plant Root Attachment By Burkholderia sp. USMB20

Attachment is an early step during bacterial plant root colonization process. Bacteria need iron as an essential component for its growth and cellular processes. Ferric uptake regulator (Fur) is a global regulator that controls bacterial iron uptake. This study investigated the roles of Burkholderia...
