Abstract
Nonpolar virB mutants of Agrobacterium tumefaciens were tested for RSF 1010 mobilization and extracellular complementation. virB2 to virB11 w ere essential for transfer in both assays. PirB1 was essential only fo r high frequency transfer of RSF1010 and VirE2. Coordinated transfer o f a preassembled T complex is supported by these data and competition studies.
