RESUMO
Morphological mutants were isolated from a wild strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens at a high frequency by treatment with a nitrosoguanidine. Seventeen of the 20 mutants isolated were temperature-sensitive. At 27 C, the mutant cells were rod-shaped and at 37 C, spherical or branched, whereas the wild-type cells were rod-shaped at both temperatures.
