HOFER?S ALKALINE MEDIUM

Agrobacterium is a genus of bacteria that causes tumors in plants. Most strains of Agrobacterium are plant pathogens and their natural habitat is on and around the roots and underground stems of susceptible plants. Agrobacterium tumefaciens is the most commonly studied species in this genus. Agrobacterium is well known for its ability to transfer DNA between itself and plants, and for this reason it has become an important tool for plant improvement by genetic engineering. Hofers Alkaline Medium is formulated as described by Subba Rao is for growing Agrobacterium species while inhibiting Rhizobium species from soil.
