Journal of applied microbiology, 86(5), 817-826 (1999-05-29)
The tolerance to, and degradation of m-toluate by Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris), a symbiotic mycorrhizal fungus (Suillus bovinus) and Pseudomonas fluorescens strains, with or without m-toluate-degrading capacity, was determined individually and in all symbiotic/associative plant-microbe combinations. Fungal survival on medium

Journal of general microbiology, 133(7), 1891-1899 (1987-07-01)
The effect of various lipophilic weak acids on the stability of certain TOL plasmids was investigated. Benzoate induced deletion of TOL plasmid DNA in Pseudomonas putida MT15, followed by loss of the plasmid; this effect was pH- and concentration-dependent, suggesting
M T Gallegos et al.
Journal of bacteriology, 178(8), 2356-2361 (1996-04-01)
Growth of Pseudomonas putida (pWWO) on alkylbenzoates requires the expression of the meta pathway operon, which is mediated by the XylS protein after binding of a benzoate effector. Alternatively, in cells growing on toluene or its aromatic alcohols, overexpression of
