Section through lesion on fruit, showing complete layer of actively dividing cells. The nuclei in the affected cells become much hypertrophied, be- coming five or six times the size of nuclei in healtby cells. The nucleolus becomes very large and vacuolate, and the nucleolar membrane dis- appears. There are frequently two nuclei in a cell or two nucleoli in one nucleus, the latter frequently irregular or lobed, being similar in shape to nuclei dividing amitotically as found by Smith(4) in crown gall lesions; but there was no clear evidence that the nuclei were dividing in this Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Association of Applied Biologists; Association of Economic Biologists.
