title: [Isolation and identification of Agrobacterium spp. from cherry crown galls and their sensitivities to agrocin 84].
abstract: Crown galls were sampled from cherry yards of Shandong, Hebei, and Liaoning provinces. 46 pathogenic strains were isolated. Physiological and biochemical tests revealed that 4 strains were Agrobacterium tumefaciens(bio. 1) and that the other 42 strains were A. rhizogenes (bio. 2), according to the classifications and nomenclatures of the genus Agrobacterium and the species revised by Sawada et al and Bouzar. The Ti plasmids of all strains were nopaline type. All strains were sensitive to agrocin 84, which suggested that crown gall disease of cherry could be controlled by K84 strain.
