A luxR Homolog, aviR, in Agrobacterium vitis Is Associated with Induction of Necrosis on Grape and a Hypersensitive Response on Tobacco

A Tn5 mutant of Agrobacterium vitis F2/5 (M1154) differs from the wild-type strain in that it has lost its abilities to cause necrosis on grape and a hypersensitive-like response (HR) on tobacco.
