Opine Catabolic Loci from Agrobacterium Plasmids Confer Chemotaxis to Their Cognate Substrates
Opines are carbon compounds produced by crown galls and hairy roots induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens and A. rhizogenes, respectively. These novel condensation products of plant metabolic intermediates are utilized as nutritional sources by the Agrobacterium strains that induced the growths. Thus...
