Abstract: | Deletions in the pSym megaplasmid of Rhizobium meliloti were produced at a high frequency, and their lengths varied according to incubation temperature. Morphological differentiation into large and small colonies occurred after heat treatment. Small colonies elicited pseudonodules on alfalfa roots. |
