Novel tellurite-amended media and specific chromosomal and Ti plasmid probes for direct analysis of soil populations of Agrobacterium biovars 1 and 2
Article Abstract:
Use of the tellurium mineral compound tellurite is evaluated as a selective agent and media supplement for analyzing agrobacteria. The agrobacteria grown on tellurite-amended media were confirmed as bona fide Agrobacterium colonies via 16S ribosomal DNA probes, suggesting that the use of tellurite is effective.

Potential of a 16S rRNA-based taxonomic microarray for analyzing the rhizosphere effects of maize on Agrobacterium spp. and bacterial communities
Article Abstract:
Bacterial diversity is central to ecosystem sustainability and soil biological function, for which the role of roots is important and the high-throughput analysis of potential of taxonomic microarray should match the breadth of bacterial diversity. The power of this technology was evidenced through methodological verifications and analysis of maize rhizosphere effect based on a 16S rRNA-based microarray developed from the prototype of H.

Identification of genomic species in Agrobacterium biovar 1 by AFLP genomic markers
Article Abstract:
A study aims to facilitate high-throughput identification of agrobacteria using the AFLP methodology, which is useful for genomic species identification and infraspecific typing of a large number of strains. Catalogues of specific AFLP genomic markers, which are conserved among all genomic species members, are established using a set of 52 agrobacterial strains from international collections, and there is a particular emphasis on the three most frequent genomic species of Agrobacterium biovar 1, genomic species G1, G4, and G8.
