Agrobacterium sp. CNPSo 2736

Agrobacterium sp. CNPSo 2736 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium recognized for its motility due to the presence of flagella. This characteristic allows the organism to navigate its environment, which is integral to its ecological interactions. The bacterium possesses a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic structure that may facilitate efficient replication and adaptation to its surroundings. The accession number for Agrobacterium sp. CNPSo 2736 is RZTX00000000.1, which serves as a unique identifier for genomic data associated with this strain. This bacterium belongs to the genus Agrobacterium, known for its role in genetic transformation of plants through the transfer of T-DNA (transferred DNA) from its plasmid into plant cells, a process that has significant implications for biotechnology and agriculture. Ecologically, Agrobacterium sp. CNPSo 2736 may contribute to plant-microbe interactions, potentially enhancing plant growth or contributing to disease processes. The motility provided by its flagella could facilitate its colonization of plant roots or other surfaces, allowing for effective communication and symbiosis with host plants. Understanding the traits of this bacterium can lead to insights into its functional roles in ecosystems and its potential applications in agricultural practices.
