Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a gramnegative soil bacterium that causes plant tumours by transferring a portion of dna from a resident tumour inducing ti plasmid into plant cells where it is integrated into a plant chromosome and expressed. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a gramnegative soil bacterium, which can cause crown gall tumors at wound sites of infected dicotyledonous plants. This this finding has had a great impact in several fields of plant biology, agriculture and biotechnology. We and others later showed that tip corresponds to a segment of the ti plasmid which is transferred by agrobacteria and stably integrated into the nuclear genome of plant cells.
