Some mutants impaired in deoxyribonucleotide biosynthesis (tso2 and rnr1/2) show defects in endoreduplication, but they also come with serious negative phenotypes.

Congratulations to my old colleagues from the Witte lab at @unihannover.bsky.social and the @frankelab.bsky.social.🎉
Always happy to see progress in nucleotide and associated metabolism in plants!

Many labs use AGL-1 as well. It is supposed to be more virulent and is recA negative. We use it regularly and it behaves well. Another option we will try is a Rhizobium strain that is supposedly even more virulent: doi.org/10.1111/pbi....
There is also a comparison of strains in that paper.

Rhizobium rhizogenes A4‐derived strains mediate hyper‐efficient transient gene expression in Nicotiana benthamiana and other solanaceous plants
Agroinfiltration, a method utilizing agrobacteria to transfer DNA into plant cells, is widely used for transient gene expression in plants. Besides the commonly used Agrobacterium strains, Rhizobium ...
