Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. VirA is a protein histidine kinase[disambiguation needed] which senses certain sugars and phenolic compounds. These compounds are typically found from wounded plants, and as a result VirA is used by Agrobacterium tumefaciens to locate potential host organisms for infection. This detection is the first stage in the Ti plasmid transfer.[1]
