This paper presents the map and DNA sequence analysis of pRi8196 transferred DNA (T-DNA) genes encoding root-inducing and mannopine synthesis functions. A canonical 24-base-pair border repeat as well as two "pseudoborders" are present at the functional right T-DNA border. To the left of this border are homologs of the mas1' and mas2' genes of TR pRiA4. Next to these are five open reading frames (ORFs) homologous to ORFs 10-14 of TL of pRiA4. ORFs 10-12 (rolA, rolB, and rolC) are less related to their pRiA4 homologs than are the other large ORFs analyzed here. In contrast to T-DNA genes of pRiA4, pRi8196 T-DNA ORFs 11 and 12 (rolB and rolC) are sufficient to induce hairy roots on carrot disks.

Wounding of explanted Pinus nigra primary explants followed by infection with Agrobacterium rhizogenes wild strains 8196, 15834, or with the pRiA4abc transconjugant strain of A. tumefaciens (C58 chromosomal background) resulted in adventitious root induction. Roots were formed in 60-97% of explants (1-3 roots/explant) but without a hairy root phenotype.

An 8 bp sequence repeated 6 times is present to the right of the mannopine type pRi8196 T-DNA right-border sequence. Experiments were designed to test whether these repeats have a role in T-DNA transfer. Several constructs in which different lengths of pRi8196 right-border region were linked to the cucumopine synthesis gene on an Agrobacterium-Escherichia coli shuttle vector were made.

Independent carrot (Daucus carota) hairy root lines were established by inoculation of discs taken from the same carrot with Agrobacterium rhizogenes 8196 and A. tumefaciens C58C1(pRi8196) carrying pRi8196. Several lines were compared with respect to T-DNA length.

Recombinant plasmids carrying segments of the Agrobacterium rhizogenes T-DNA regions of the three Ri plasmids 1855 (TL-DNA only), 8196, and 2659 were used for establishing homology maps by electron microscope examination of heteroduplexes. Plasmid DNA was linearized by digestion with suitable restriction endonucleases in order to generate large T-DNA segments. Heteroduplexes were prepared in 50% formamide and spread under standard conditions.
