From your genetics lab, Agrobacterium tumefaciens gram-positive bacterium was used during your experiment on genetic manipulation of a corn plant
Rhizobiaceae is a family of bacteria that includes Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Gram-negative and aerobically growing, these bacteria don't produce endospores. The cells have one to six peritrichous flagella and are rod-shaped and motile. Cells can exist alone or in pairs and range in size from 0.6 to 1.0 m by 1.5 to 3.0 m.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens is a gram-negative bacterium that causes tumors in plants through horizontal gene transfer. In a variety of plant species, Agrobacterium tumefaciens has been widely exploited as the primary agent in the generation of transgenic plants. A soil phytopathogen called Agrobacterium tumefaciens naturally infects plant wound sites and causes the disease known as crown gall by the transfer of (T)-DNA.
