Abstract
Gram-negative, yellow-pigmented rods with low mol percent GC contents (percent GC about 30-40) were more sensitive to UV light than those with high mol percent contents GC contents (percent GC about 60-70). This may be useful in identifying those gram-negative, yellow-pigmented bacilli currently classified as Flavobacterium.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
