Recombination between higher plant DNA and the Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

چکیده
The Ti plasmid sequences (T-DNA) from the octopine-producing crown gall tumor A6S/2 were isolated by molecular cloning, using the bacteriophage lambda vector Charon 4A. Analysis of the cloned DNA segments indicates that the Ti plasmid sequences are covalently joined to plant nuclear DNA. These data demonstrate that genetic recombination between a eukaryote and a prokaryote can occur as a natural phenomenon.

Integration of Agrobacterium tumefaciens T-DNA in the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome by illegitimate recombination.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens can transfer part of its Ti plasmid, the T-DNA, to plant cells where it integrates into the nuclear genome via illegitimate recombination. Integration of the T-DNA results in small deletions of the plant target DNA, and may lead to truncation of the T-DNA borders and the production of filler DNA. We showed previously that T-DNA can also be transferred from A. tumefacie...
متن کاملA new method for construction of Ti plasmid-less strains in Agrobacterium tumefaciens.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens harboring a Ti plasmid causes plant tumorigenesis and it's DNA transfer system have been extensively used in plant biotechnology. Because Ti plasmids are high stable in agrobacterial hosts, their curing is very difficult by conventional methods. Here, we introduced a novel curing method by using Ti plasmids incompatibility.
متن کاملVirulence of Agrobacterium tumefaciens Strain A281 on Legumes.
This study addresses the basis of host range on legumes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain A281, an l,l-succinamopine strain. We tested virulence of T-DNA and vir region constructs from this tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid with complementary Ti plasmid regions from heterologous nopaline and octopine strains.
متن کاملGenotypic variability of soybean response to agrobacterium strains harboring the ti or ri plasmids.
Twenty four diverse cultivars of soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merrill) and three lines of its annual wild progenitor Glycine soja Sieb and Zucc. were tested for their response to Agrobacterium strains harboring either the Ti (tumor-inducing) plasmid (pTi) from Agrobacterium tumefaciens or the Ri (root-inducing) plasmid (pRi) from Agrobacterium rhizogenes following uniform wounding and inoculation....
متن کاملMolecular identification of agrobacterium tumefaciens containing pCAMBIA 1305.2 plasmid using multiplex PCR and Gold nanoparticles multiplex probe
Conventional microbiology methods used to detect bacteria include multiple cultures and identification processes, so the results of lab work are painstaking and time-consuming. In recent years, more and more tend to use the diagnostic tests which are based on DNA; hence, DNA diagnostic biosensors have been created to perform DNA identification better. In this study, GUS and hpt genes were used ...
