Arasında 291 becərilən şirin kartof test qoşulma, bütün bir və ya daha çox transfer DNT ehtiva (T-DNA) ardıcıllığı. Bu ardıcıllığı, bir əkin şirin kartof klon ifadə edilə göstərilir ki, ("Huachano") ki, ətraflı təhlil edilmişdir, suggest that an Agrobacterium infection occurred in evolutionary times. One of the T-DNAs is apparently present in all cultivated sweet potato clones, but not in the crop’s closely related wild relatives, suggesting the T-DNA provided a trait or traits that were selected for during domestication. This finding draws attention to the importance of plant–microbe interactions, and given that this crop has been eaten for millennia, it may change the paradigm governing the “unnatural” status of transgenic crops.
