The invention provides three novel disarmed strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens bacteria useful for the transformation of plants. The invention provides three engineered A. tumefaciens Chry5 strains or bacterial cells thereof which comprise the Chry5 strain chromosomal background and a disarmed pTiChry5 vector, and methods of using said bacterial strains or cells for transformation of fungal or plant cells, in particular dicot or monocot plant cells, including soybean, maize, wheat, and sugarcane cells. The invention further relates to the transgenic plants created by these methods.
An engineered Agrobacterium tumefaciens cell comprising a Chry5 strain chromosomal background and a fully disarmed pTiChry5 vector, wherein the disarmed pTiChry5 vector has both TL-DNA and TR-DNA regions removed, wherein the fully disarmed pTiChry5 vector comprises a nucleic acid sequence at least 70% identical to SEQ ID NO:
A nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleic acid sequence at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO:
