Abstract
A method is described for obtaining unidirectional flow of metabolites from one bacterial culture on agar to another. Three pairs of pink and white variants of Serratia marcescens mutually supplement each other so that when two are grown together they both develop red pigment even where the flow of metabolites from one mutant to the other is unidirectional.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
