    • Induction of hairy roots on cultivated soybean genotypes and their use to propagate the soybean cyst nematode. 

      Savka, Michael; Ravillion, B.; Noel, G.; Farrand, Stephen (American Phytopathological Society: Phytopathology, 1990)
      Ten soybean (Glycine max ) genotypes were evaluated for hairy root induction by four strains of Agrobacterium rhizogenes . Influence of inoculation site was assessed by infecting hypocotyls and cotyledons on germinated ...
    • Induction of pseudoactinorhizae by the plant pathogen Agrobacterium rhizogenes 

      Berg, R. Howard; Liu, Lixua; Dawson, Jeffrey; Savka, Michael; Farrand, Stephen (American Society of Plant Biologists: Plant Physiology, 1992-02)
      Infection of Elaeagnus angustifolia cotyledonary wounds by Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain NCPPB 2659 resulted in the formation of pseudoactinorhizae on roots differentiated from callus. These pseudoactinorhizal root nodules ...
    • Mannityl opine accumulation and exudation by transgenic tobacco 

      Savka, Michael; Farrand, Stephen (American Society of Plant Biologists: Plant Physiology, 1992-02)
      Three genes from the TR region of pTi15955 were introduced into tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) to direct the synthesis of the mannityl opines from hexose sugars and glutamine or glutamate. Opines were present in all tissue ...
