Many plants of economic importance are possible hosts for Agrobacterium tumefaciens, the causal organism of the crown gall tumor disease. Damage has been reported on stone fruit (Australia), vineyard (Hungary, Bulgaria), lettuce (Brasil) ... In Western-Europe, crown gall seems to be of less economic importance for plants growing in the open air. However, plants cultivated in greenhouses have a greater chance to be tumorized, because of the more favourable circumstances for tumor induction. Modern treatments are based on the inactivation or killing of the tumorigenic organism at the time of the wounding of the host plants.
许多具有经济重要性的植物都可能是根癌土壤杆菌的宿主，根癌土壤杆菌是冠瘿瘤病的致病生物。据报道，核果（澳大利亚）、葡萄园（匈牙利、保加利亚）、生菜（巴西）均受到损害……在西欧，冠瘿病对露天种植的植物而言，经济重要性似乎较低。然而，温室中种植的植物发生肿瘤的几率更大，因为诱导肿瘤的环境更为有利。现代治疗方法是基于在宿主植物受伤时使致瘤生物失活或死亡。
