    A 14-Tesla 15-Centimeter-Bore Superconductive Magnet

    Water-cooled, cryogenically cooled, and superconducting magnets of various types are currently in use at the Lewis Research Center [1–5]. These magnets are a part of a broad program for advanced space propulsion ...

    Characterization of the Germination Response to Temperature of Species and Ecotypes

    A new method of measurement gives more reliable data about the response of seeds to temperature in terms of their success in germination. This should help to answer many questions about plant distribution and ...

    Germination of Caryophyllaceae at Low Temperatures in relation to Geographical Distribution

    SEED germination is one of many factors which determine whether a particular species is able to maintain itself in a given locality. This must occur at a season which will allow the subsequent development of t...

    Direct Transmission of a Growth-promoting Substance from Strawberry to Pea

    RECENT papers by Guttridge1,2 have provided evidence that photo-periodically controlled growth responses in the strawberry may be regulated by a hormone, produced in long days, which promotes vegetative growth an...

    Effect of Gibberellic Acid on the Initiation of Flowers and Runners in the Strawberry

    A NUMBER of long-day responses are induced by the application of gibberellic acid to plants growing in short days. These include the promotion of stem elongation and flower induction in long-day plants1; inhibiti...

    Effect of Gibberellic Acid on Length and Number of Epidermal Cells in Petioles of Strawberry

    INCREASE in height is perhaps the most widely observed effect of gibberellic acid on plants. This is mainly due to longer internodes, and not to a larger number of nodes. The increased length of an internode h...
