Infiltration with Agrobacterium tumefaciens Induces Host Defense and Development-Dependent Responses in the Infiltrated Zone

Despite the widespread use of Agrobacterium tumefaciens to transfer genes into plant systems, host responses to this plant pathogen are not well understood. The present study shows that disarmed strains of Agrobacterium induce distinct host responses when infiltrated into leaves of Nicotiana tabacum...
