Summary — Serological study of Moroccan strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causal agent of crowngall in stone-fruit trees. To investigate the possibility of using serological diagnosis methods for Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causal agent of crown-gall of stone-fruit trees, and particularly in order to distinguish between pathogenic and non-pathogenic strains of the bacterium, we tested antisera against 40 bacterial cultures with three serological techniques. The serological reactions were very variable. Some of the antisera showed strain specificity whereas others reacted with all strains without any link to the chosen strain or the immunizing protocol. None of the 12 studied antisera was biovar-specific. No
