Several diazotrophic strains of Klebsiella oxytoca and K. terrigena that colonize the plant-host interior were able to produce the plant cell wall depolymerising enzyme pectate lyase (Pel). The activity of the K. oxytoca enzyme was weaker than that of phytopathogenic bacteria, and it was located mai...
