چکیده
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a phytopathogenic bacterium that causes crown gall disease. The strain Ach5 was isolated from yarrow (Achillea ptarmica L.) and is the wild-type progenitor of other derived strains widely used for plant transformation. Here, we report the complete genome sequence of this bacterium.

Genome Sequence of the Octopine-Type Agrobacterium tumefaciens Strain Ach5
We have sequenced the complete genome of the plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4213, a derivative of the wild-type strain A. tumefaciens Ach5 and the ancestor of A. tumefaciens strain LBA4404 used in genetic engineering. The genome consists of a circular chromosome and a linear chromosome, as well as a megaplasmid and a tumor-inducing plasmid.
متن کاملDraft Genome Sequence of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Biovar 1 Strain 186, Isolated from Walnut
Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 1 strain 186 was isolated from a walnut tree expressing crown gall symptoms. The draft genome sequence of this strain harbored genes for crown gall formation and will be useful for understanding its virulence on Paradox, the predominant hybrid rootstock used for the cultivation of English walnut in California.
متن کاملOrnithine cyclodeaminase from octopine Ti plasmid Ach5: identification, DNA sequence, enzyme properties, and comparison with gene and enzyme from nopaline Ti plasmid C58.
Octopine and nopaline are two arginine-derived opines synthesized in plant cells transformed with octopine or nopaline plasmids. Utilization in Agrobacterium tumefaciens is mediated by Ti plasmid regions called occ or noc (octopine or nopaline catabolism), and recent experiments showed that noc in pTiC58 codes for a pathway from nopaline to L-proline. The last enzyme is ornithine cyclodeaminase...

Agrobacterium tumefaciens P4 is a quorum-sensing-signal-producing bacterium that has been isolated from the tobacco rhizosphere. This strain belongs to genomospecies 1 of the A. tumefaciens complex; it is avirulent on various putative host plants, devoid of the Ti plasmid, and contains a luxI homolog on the At plasmid.
