Burkholderia contaminans Biofilm Regulating Operon and Its Distribution in Bacterial Genomes
Biofilm formation by Burkholderia spp. is a principal cause of lung chronic infections in cystic fibrosis patients. A “lacking biofilm production” (LBP) strain B. contaminans GIMC4587:Bct370‐19 has been obtained by insertion modification of clinical strain with plasposon mutagenesis.
