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:
Where A. vitis F2/5 is effective as a biological control agent, its control is only effective when numbers of F2/5 are equal to, or greater than, the number of cells of the virulent strain [ 3 ] . Strains that are resistant to F2/5 biological control are known.
Strains that are susceptible to the antibiotic in vitro, such as A. vitis strain CG78, are able to infect the plant in the presence of F2/5 [ 3 ] , and Tn5 mutants of F2/5 lacking F2/5 antibiotic production appear to be unaffected in crown gall biological control [ 4 ] . Biological control by F2/5 is grape-specific, as F2/5 is not effective on non-grapevine host plants such as Nicotiana glauca.
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.
All of the A. vitis strains except for F2/5 were sensitive to R. etli CE3(pT2TFXK) as evidenced by zones of growth inhibition around the CE3(pT2TFXK) colonies.
Because A. vitis F2/5 produces an antibiotic to which most of the tumorigenic strains are sensitive [ 3 ] , the effect of TFX on A. vitis was assessed against TFX-producing and non-producing Rhizobium strains.
