Use of the genetically engineered Agrobacterium strain K1026 for biological control of crown gall.

2000-11-01

Abstract excerpt

Strain K84 of Agrobacterium (formerly called A. radiobacter) has been a successful biocontrol agent of crown gall disease for almost 30 years all over the world. In spite of its demonstrated efficiency, the most important risk of failure when using strain K84 is the possibility of transfer of plasmid pAgK84 to pathogenic Agrobacterium strains. pAgK84 codifies production of and immunity to agrocin 84, the main fact...
