Abstract
Agrobacterium tumefaciens incites crown gall tumors when bacterial DNA integrates into plant nuclear DNA. Plant cells can express these integrated bacterial genes. Following insertion of desired genes into bacterial DNA using recombinant DNA techniques, this system permits introduction of these new genes into plant DNA. We discuss the potential for genetic manipulation of plants using Agrobacterium tumefaciens and the related organism Agrobacterium rhizogenes.
