Tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmids of Agrobacterium share extensive regions of DNA homology

M H Drummond et al. J Bacteriol. 1978 Dec.

Abstract

Labeled Ti plasmid DNAs from diverse Agrobacterium strains were hybridized to Southern blots of pTi-B6-806 plasmid DNA digest fragments of known map order. The map location of DNA sequences common to all Ti plasmids was found to be extensive, consistent with the view that Ti plasmids have evolved from a common ancestral plasmid.
