TABLE 4.
Pathogenicity of diverse mutants in tomato using complementation analyses with plasmids covering the vir (pVCK219 and pVCK225) or the T-DNA (pTHE17) region
| Mutant | Origin (strain, host) | Results of complementation analyses witha:
|
|||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| No plasmid | pVCK219b | pVCK225c | pTHE17d | ||
| P72 | C58, pepper | − | − | − | − |
| T1 | C58, tomato | − | − | − | + |
| T22, T38, T67 | IVIA1102, tomato | − | − | − | + |
| T32, T76 | IVIA1102, tomato | +d | +d | +d | + |
a
Results of the inoculation of transformed colonies in tomato. +, tumor; −, no tumor; +d, tumor smaller than that caused by the parental strain. The same results were obtained with six independent transformants per strain for each plasmid tested.
b
Plasmid containing virH, virA, and virB genes; see Fig. 1.
c
Plasmid containing virG, virC, virD, and virE genes; see Fig. 1. This plasmid plus pVCK219 covers the whole vir region of strain A6 (see Fig. 1).
d
Plasmid containing the entire T-DNA region from strain C58.
