Single Insertion of the Omegon-Km Artificial Transposon into Plasmid Sp245_p02 Influences the Biogenesis of Flagella and Mechanoresponse of Azospirillum baldaniorum

Abstract— The cells of Azospirillum baldaniorum Sp245 [IBPPM 219] constitutively synthesize the polar flagellum (Fla). In response to the increasing density/viscosity of the medium, numerous lateral flagella (Laf) different from Fla emerge additionally on the surface of this bact...
