Hi,
their is a nice short review on agro strains, their "history" and their 
respective plasmids by Roger Hellens and Philip Mullineaux (2000, Trends in 
Plant Science, vol 5 (10):446-451). If you want to know, whether a certain 
strain/plasmid will work on "your" species, you'd better search the lit 
databanks with the species' and the strains names.

Good luck,
Klaus
