Abstract

IT was not our intention, nor was it considered necessary or feasible, to review the whole aspect of clonal propagation in such a short communication as that referred to1. Our main object was to bring to the notice of interested workers the observation made by us on one aspect of root production in the course of work in progress on the crop with hormones and other growth-promoting substances. Nevertheless, the points relevant to our work have been fully covered in our communication, and the other references given in Mr. Davis's communication2 were felt quite irrelevant in our preliminary account.
