Answer

  • A foreign gene is inserted in T-DNA region of the plasmid.

  • The T gene becomes inactive.

  • The recombined or cloning vector is now passed into plasmid free bacterium.

  • It is allowed to infect the plant or single cells in tissue culture.

  • The plasmid with the desired inserted gene passes into variuos parts.

  • The inserted gene expresses its effect.

  • Agrobacterium tumifaciens normally infects only dicot plants.

  • But one with modified nonvirulent plasmid can also cause genetic changes in monocots.
