Transcriptional analysis of dextransucrase encoding genes during fermentation of EPS− and EPS+ BSG. Relative expression of three dextransucrase encoding genes (dsrD1, dsrD2 and dsrD3) present in Leuconostoc pseudomesenteroides DSM20193 (a) and one dextransucrase gene (dsrW1) present in Weissella confusa A16 (b) against housekeeping gene recA were determined at T0, T10, T16 and T24 (hours) during fermentation of control (EPS−) and sucrose supplemented (EPS+) BSG
