Genome-wide study of bacterial inoculant gene expression in soil

The goals of this study were to quantify genome-wide gene expression differences of the aromatic-compound degrading bacterium Pseudomonas veronii 1YdBTEX2 upon inoculation in a variety of soils, contaminated or not with external toluene. Three growth phases were examined: a lag phase (1 h contact in the material), exponential growth and stationary phase.
