Summary A ‘most probable number’ method is described, using paper chromatography, for enumerating bacteria which produce 2-ketogluconic acid in soils and other habitats. Using this method it has been shown that highest numbers of this group of organisms are associated with habitats rich in organic matter. An enhancement of this group of organisms in the rhizosphere of barley plants has been demonstrated and also a marked stimulation around starch-containing pellets buried in soil.
