| Abstract |
Agrobacterium exopolysaccharides play a major role in the life of the cell. Exopolysaccharides are required for bacterial growth as a biofilm and they protect the bacteria against environmental stresses. Five of the exopolysaccharides made by A. tumefaciens have been characterized extensively with respect to their structure, synthesis, regulation, and role in the life of the bacteria. These are cyclic-β-(1, 2)-glucan, cellulose, curdlan, succinoglycan, and the unipolar polysaccharide (UPP). This chapter describes the structure, synthesis, regulation, and function of these five exopolysaccharides. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 July 2018.
All research outputs
#20,525,274
of 23,094,276 outputs
Outputs from Current topics in microbiology and immunology
#603
of 684 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#378,496
of 442,658 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Current topics in microbiology and immunology
#9
of 10 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,094,276 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 684 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.9. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 442,658 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 10 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
