| Abstract: | Abstract— The quantitative changes in the levels of RNA and DNA in shoots treated with red and/or far-red light are presented.
The results indicate that red light, but not far-red light, stimulated cell division. The changes in RNA are discussed in relation to the nature of the light treatment. |
