Abstract
Plants regenerated from hairy root tumors induced on Nicotiana glauca and Nicotiana tabacum by Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain A4 were examined for the presence of T-DNA. Regenerated N. tabacum plants contained intact copies of both TL-DNA and TR-DNA. However, plants regenerated from N. glauca tumors did not contain the TR-DNA region corresponding to the tms (auxin synthesis) genes. Some of the regenerants exhibited an abnormal phenotype which is characterized by severe leaf wrinkling. This phenotype is correlated with the presence of TL-DNA, but not TR-DNA.
