Inoculation Assay

The Arabidopsis thaliana mutants uvh1 and rad5, originally identified as radiation hypersensitive, were reported to be deficient in T-DNA integration based on the relative efficiencies of stable transformation and T-DNA transfer. We reassessed these mutants for susceptibility to transformation by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The mutant rad5 showed a significant reduction in the efficiency of transient as well as stable transformation, compared with its wild-type progenitor. These data indicate that rad5 is blocked at a step in the transformation process prior to T-DNA integration. We additionally found, using both an in vitro root inoculation and an in vivo flower bolt inoculation assay, that the mutant uvh1 is as susceptible to A. tumefaciens-mediated transformation as is its wild-type progenitor, C10.

Wild Type

Agrobacterium tumefaciens chvB mutants are unable to produce β-1,2 glucan. They are nonattaching and avirulent and show reduced motility at room temperature. At lower temperatures (16°C), chvB mutants became virulent on Bryophyllum daigremontiana and Lycopersicon esculentum and were able to attach to L. esculentum, Arabidopsis thaliana, Daucus carota, and Tagetes erecta roots. The mutant bacteria also recovered wild-type motility at lower temperatures. Two other nonattaching mutants of A. tumefaciens, AttR and AtrA, were unaffected by the lowered temperature, remaining nonattaching and avirulent.
