Construction of a Derivative of Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 That Does Not Mutate to Tetracycline Resistance

Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58 mutates to tetracycline resistance at high frequency, complicating the use of many broad-host-range cloning and binary vectors that code for resistance to this antibiotic as the selection marker. Such mutations are associated with a resistant gene unit, tetC58, that is...
