The S-Adenosyl-l-Homocysteine Hydrolase Gene ahcY of Agrobacterium radiobacter K84 Is Required for Optimal Growth, Antibiotic Production, and Biocontrol of Crown Gall Disease

Agrobacterium radiobacter K84 is a commercial agent used worldwide to control crown gall disease caused by pathogenic isolates of A. tumefaciens. More than 2,000 transposon insertion derivatives of strain K84 were screened by a standardized greenhouse bioassay to identify mutants defective in biocon...
