Abstract

The extracellular polysaccharides obtained from infective and noninfective strains of Rhizobium trifolii were analysed to investigate if infective properties were correlated with polysaccharide composition. The results indicate that soluble extracellular polysaccharides were not a determinant factor in infectivity. However, electrophoresis of bacterial surface lipopolysaccharides showed a relation between the loss of infectivity and changes in electrophoretic mobility.
