Evaluation of the colonization and biofilm production by Burkholderia pyroccinia FP62 on geranium leaves

Creator:

Wallace, Patricia K.

Abstract:

The leaf surface is a stark environment for bacterial colonists with limited availability of nutrients, water and protected niches. Despite these limitations, a plethora of bacteria appear to have adapted ways to survive and flourish on leaf surfaces. One mechanism of survival is the formation of biofilms. Biofilms are a...
