When researchers transform plant cells using a bacterium that causes plant tumors how do researches prevent plant tumors from forming in the transformred cells?

not sure about that, but the reality is like that the transformed cells are processed (under microscope, done observations) very quickly, in about 1-2 days, not more. So, no tumors could happen.
