Abstract

A region homologous to the TL-DNA of Agrobacterium rhizogenes was previously detected in the genome of untransformed Nicotiana glauca and designated cellular T-DNA (cT-DNA). Subsequently, part of this region was sequenced and two genes, which corresponded to rolB and rolC and were named NgrolB and NgrolC, were found. We have now sequenced a region of the cT-DNA other than the region that includes NgrolB and C and we have found two other open reading frames (ORFs), NgORF13 and NgORF14. These ORFs correspond to ORFs 13 and 14 of the TL-DNA of A. rhizogenes and exhibit a high degree of homology to these ORFs, without having a nonsense codon. We have not found any sequence homologous to rolD (ORF15). The two genes, NgORF13 and 14, as well as the NgrolB and C genes, are expressed in genetic tumors of hybrids between N. glauca and N. langsdorffii but not in leaf tissues of the hybrid.
