Agrobacterium is a soil bacterium that infects plants by transferring a piece of its DNA (T-DNA) into the plant cells. The T-DNA contains genes that modify the plant’s growth, leading to the formation of a tumor called a crown gall. This process is exploited in biotechnology to genetically engineer plants by inserting desired genes into the plant genome using Agrobacterium as a tool.
