Disarmed A. tumefaciens strains (column 1), acronyms used (column 2) and location of the genes conferring resistance to the various antibiotics, this includes the resistance located in the bacterial genome (column 3), the Ti plasmid (column 4) and the T-DNA vector (column 5). Antibiotics are abbreviated as follows: Rif = rifampicin, Gent = gentamicin, Strep = Streptomycin, Kan = kanamycin, and the absence of the T-DNA vector or Ti plasmid is indicated by a dash (-).
