Isolation and Characterization of <italic toggle="yes">Agrobacterium</italic> Strains from Soil: A Laboratory Capstone Experience

In this investigation, the students’ goal was to isolate and characterize Agrobacterium strains from soil. Following selection and enrichment on 1A-t medium, putative Agrobacterium isolates were characterized by Gram stain reaction and biochemical tests. Isolates were further evaluated using polymer...
