Abstract
A mutant of Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774 has been obtained which is incapable of sulfate respiration with molecular hydrogen but which grows normally on lactate plus sulfate under argon. Growth characteristics of the mutant suggest that the defect is involved in electron transfer to sulfate or nitrate but not thiosulfate.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
