In this study, the low heterogeneity of the Agrobacterium sp.
TMS1 gene was validated using 6 different Agrobacterium sp. strains
and 28 isolates from different geographic and phylogenic origins.
In all of the DNA assays, the expected 142 bp DNA fragment of
the TMS1 gene was observed indicating the low heterogeneity of
the TMS1 gene among different Agrobacterium sp. strains and isolates
(Fig. 3A).
