Deng W, Chen L, Wood D, Metcalfe T, Liang X, Gordon M, et al.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 1998 Jun;
95(12):7040-5.
PMID: 9618535
Agrobacterium tumefaciens induces crown gall tumors on plants by transferring a nucleoprotein complex, the T-complex, from the bacterium to the plant cell. The T-complex consists of T-DNA, a single-stranded DNA...

Gene
. 1998 May;
210(2):307-14.
PMID: 9573388
Previous studies have shown that the virulence(vir) genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain KU12 are induced by a unique set of phenolic compounds that are non-functional in most strains of Agrobacterium....

J Bacteriol
. 1997 Apr;
179(7):2452-8.
PMID: 9079938
The Agrobacterium tumefaciens virulence determinant ChvE is a periplasmic binding protein which participates in chemotaxis and virulence gene induction in response to monosaccharides which occur in the plant wound environment....

Belanger C, Loubens I, Nester E, Dion P
J Bacteriol
. 1997 Apr;
179(7):2305-13.
PMID: 9079917
The transconjugant CB100, harboring the Ti plasmid from the Agrobacterium tumefaciens biovar 2 strain D10B/87 in the chromosomal background of the biovar 1 strain C58, was defective in vir gene...

Heath J, Boulton M, Raineri D, Doty S, Mushegian A, Charles T, et al.
Mol Plant Microbe Interact
. 1997 Mar;
10(2):221-7.
PMID: 9057328
The ability of Agrobacterium strains to infect transformation-recalcitrant maize plants has been shown to be determined mainly by the virA locus, implicating vir gene induction as the major factor influencing...

Gene
. 1996 Nov;
179(1):83-8.
PMID: 8955632
The virulence (vir) genes of Agrobacterium tumefaciens are induced by low-molecular-weight phenolic compounds and monosaccharides through a two-component regulatory system consisting of the VirA and VirG proteins. Although it is...

Fullner K, Lara J, Nester E
Science
. 1996 Aug;
273(5278):1107-9.
PMID: 8688097
Agrobacterium tumefaciens can genetically transform eukaryotic cells. In many bacteria, pili are required for interbacterial DNA transfer. The formation of pili by Agrobacterium required induction of tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid-encoded virulence...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 1996 Jul;
93(14):7321-6.
PMID: 8692991
We describe a conserved family of bacterial gene products that includes the VirB1 virulence factor encoded by tumor-inducing plasmids of Agrobacterium spp., proteins involved in conjugative DNA transfer of broad-host-range...

J Bacteriol
. 1996 Mar;
178(6):1498-504.
PMID: 8626274
Early studies on Agrobacterium tumefaciens showed that development of tumors on plants following infection by A. tumefaciens was optimal at temperatures around 22 degrees C and did not occur at...

Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 1996 Feb;
93(4):1613-8.
PMID: 8643679
Agrobacterium tumefaciens transfers a piece of its Ti plasmid DNA (transferred DNA or T-DNA) into plant cells during crown gall tumorigenesis. A. tumefaciens can transfer its T-DNA to a wide...
