Description

Sectional committee: Botany

Recommended for publication in Philosophical Transactions. It may make more sense to publish the paper in the Annals of Botany, as a paper on a similar subject was published there. The discussion part isn't up to Royal Society standards.

[Published in Philosophical Transactions B, 1947 under the title 'Experimental investigations of the shoot apex of Dryopteris aristata Druce'].
