Agrobacterium is a genus of bacteria that causes crown gall disease in plants. This disease is characterized by the uncontrolled growth of plant tissue, resulting in a tumor. Agrobacterium transfers a small piece of DNA called T-DNA into the plant cell, which then integrates into the plant genome and causes the tumor formation.
