[The progress on T-DNA integration research].
The T-DNA integration is a critical step of the steady inheritance for foreign genes during the Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. There are many factors that influence the integration, including virulence proteins, host factors and so on. The article reviews the recent progress in these aspects, and also expatiates on the integration of T-DNA in host genome and distribution in the chromosomal level and the integration models.
