Addition diversity to plant transformation
Article Abstract:
An alternative bacteria that do the work of Agrobacterium, even though at lower efficiencies is described in an effort to circumvent technology patents involving this bacterium. The methods for introducing new genes into plant cells are divided into two categories namely the 'natural' method using Agrobacterium and the 'physical' approach using more violent methods such as the 'gene gun' or electroporation.
