  • He would go on to identify the bacterium as P. syringae, investigate P. syringae's role in ice nucleation and in 1977, discover the mutant ice-minus strain. (wikipedia.org)
  • Qualified cell banks should be used and tested for identity, viability, strain, genotype/phenotype, and presence/copy number of the plasmid vector of interest, along with a description of its structural elements. (bioprocessintl.com)
  • The reason for the observed defective assembly in E. coli is probably not some unidentified mutation in the plasmid DNA because the same plasmid preparation complemented a B. subtilis sdhCAB deletion strain [7]. (lu.se)
