Words similar to vitis
Example sentences for: vitis
How can you use “vitis” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Agrobacterium vitis strains were suspended in sterile distilled water prior to the determination of colony forming units (CFU) per ml.
Agrobacterium rhizogenes is capable of producing TFX by addition of the stable plasmid, pT2TFXK, which contains the tfx operon but not tfuA [ 11 12 20 ] . This suggests that TFX production by crown gall biological control strains of Agrobacterium, such as A. rhizogenes K84 and A. vitis F2/5, may be enhanced by TFX production.
Strain F2/5 also produces an A. vitis -specific antibiotic in vitro, but this antibiotic is not involved in disease control [ 4 ] . Thus, the addition of TFX to F2/5 is a successful example of pyramiding unrelated disease control mechanisms and clearly demonstrates that individual antibiotics can be effectively developed as a mechanism of disease control.
In vitroTFX antibiosis against A. vitis
Trifolitoxin production enhances rhizosphere competitiveness of Rhizobium etli CE3 (pT2TFXK) in sterile soil and enhances nodulation efficiency in non-sterile soil when compared to a TFX-sensitive strain [ 20 ] . Trifolitoxin production also increases bean nodulation competitiveness of Rhizobium etli CE3 in the presence of indigenous rhizobia under agricultural conditions [ 15 ] . Field application of R. etli CE3 (pT2TFXK) dramatically reduced the diversity of indigenous α-proteobacteria in the bean rhizosphere without affecting unrelated species [ 13 ] . Thus, TFX production by A. vitis F2/5 should enhance the competitiveness and aid in establishment of this beneficial strain in the rhizosphere.
