Abstract
Young seedlings of the amphiploid Nicotiana glauca × N. langsdorffii, grown aseptically on nutrient medium, were treated with solutions containing 2-mercaptoethanol, and the incidence of tumor formation was scored for 30 days subsequent to exposure. Mercaptoethanol caused a marked acceleration in the rate of tumorigenesis when the pH of the test solution was in the alkaline range. The effectiveness of the compound was reduced by lowering the pH of the treatment solution.
