Summary
| 1. | Further studies on the effect of crown gall on Ficus elastica show that buds below the necrotized crown gall and stem developed into branches and leaves. | ||||
| 2. | The regularity of the development of the dormant buds suggests that axillary buds developed when inoculated with the crowngall organism are not due to the effect of bacteria, but to a localized mechanical stimulation similar to decapitation. | ||||
| 3. | The complete stimulative effect is inhibited by crown gall and only when complete necrosis of the crown gall and adjacent parts occurs is the mechanical stimulus allowed to act. | ||||
