Different Regulation and Roles of Lactonases AiiB and AttM in Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58
The phytopathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 expresses two lactonases, AttM and AiiB. We showed that expression of the aiiB gene was controlled by agrocinopines A and B and required the agrocinopine-ABC transporter Acc, but was not affected by the ...

Ecological Conditions and Molecular Determinants Involved in Agrobacterium Lifestyle in Tumors
The study of pathogenic agents in their natural niches allows for a better understanding of disease persistence and dissemination. Bacteria belonging to the Agrobacterium genus are soil-borne and can colonize the rhizosphere. These bacteria are also well

Nucleoprotein Changes in Plant Tumor Growth [PDF]
Tumor cell transformation and growth were studied in a plant neoplasm, crown gall of bean, induced by Agrobacterium rubi. Ribose nucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribose nucleic acid (DNA), histone, and total protein were estimated by microphotometry of nuclei, nucleoli, and cytoplasm in stained tissue sections. Transformation of normal cells to tumor cells was

The plant tumor disease, known as crown gall, was not called by that name until more recent times. Tumors on plants, particularly on cultivated grapevines, were observed thousands of years ago and recorded in the bible (wine was being made 7000 years ...

List of plants with galls induced by insects from the UNILAVRAS/Boqueirão Biological Reserve, Ingaí, state of Minas Gerais, Brazil [PDF]
Tumors caused on vegetal tissues, named galls or cecidiens, may occur due to the action of several organisms such as bacteria, viruses, nematodes, fungi and insects. The main inductors are insects and this is a highly complex kind of herbivory.
