African Violets and Agrobacterium

[BIOLOGY melissa a melan]

Dear Plant-Netters,

	Does anyone "out there" know if african violets (Saintpaulia) are 
susceptible to Agrobacterium infection?  Has anyone carried out or know 
if transformations have been done on these plants with Agro?

Please respond by E-mail to address below as I only rarely read this group.

Thanks in advance!!
