A guide to Agrobacterium binary Ti vectors

Agrobacterium-based plasmid vectors allow the transformation of a wide range of plant species by capitalizing on a natural bacterial system to introduce DNA into the nuclear genome of plants. It is often a complex task to consider fully all the possible plasmid vectors and Agrobacterium strains available, and it can thus be difficult to take full advantage of these research tools. This practical guide is a survey of the many binary Ti plasmid vectors and Agrobacterium strains available, and aims to help researchers to make an informed decision about the system that is best suited to their needs...
