Arthrobacter and related genera

Arthrobacter are very common in many soils and are readily isolated in laboratory media and so they have been isolated extensively from soils. There are many species known and this chapter offers a detailed description of the Arthrobacter genus. This entry describes Arthrobacter species with an emphasis on the ability of many of the strains to transform anthropogenic chemicals into less toxic p...

Erwinia and Related Genera
