The Ti plasmid of Agrobacterium is responsible for the natural transformation of plant cells into tumours. So, it is modified into a non-pathogen ic vector but still is able to deliver the DNA. This disarmed plasmid of Agrobacterium is used as a vector for the transformation of plant cells, thus proved to play an important role in biotechnology.
