Strain K84 biological control is primarily due to production of two plasmid-encoded antibiotics, agrocins 84 and 484, encoded by genes on pAgK84 and pAgK434 respectively [ 5 ] . Agrocin 84, an adenosine analog [ 6 ] , is effective against tumorigenic strains carrying nopaline/agrocinopine tumor-inducing plasmids, and requires the acc system in the target strain for activity [ 7 ] . Agrocin 434, a di-substituted cytidine analog, is effective against, and specific for, a broad range of A. rhizogenes strains [ 8 ] . Curing of either agrocin-encoding plasmid results in reduction of biological control activity [ 9 ] . Thus, K84 demonstrates the efficacy of antibiosis for crown gall biological control.

Here we present experiments demonstrating the TFX-sensitivity of a range of A. vitis strains and the effect of the TFX production and resistance phenotypes on the expression of biological control of crown gall using the model plant Nicotiana glauca.
