is a plant pathogen that transfers a segment of its own DNA into host plants to cause Crown Gall disease. The infection process requires intimate contact between the infecting bacteria and the host tissue. A. tumefaciens attaches efficiently to plant tissues and to abiotic surfaces, and can establish complex biofilms at colonization sites. The dominant mode of attachment is via a single pole in contact with the surface. Several different appendages, adhesins and adhesives play roles during attachment, and foster the transition from free-swimming to sessile growth. This polar surface interaction reflects a more fundamental cellular asymmetry in A. tumefaciens that influences and is congruent with its attached lifestyle.
