Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Influence of Light and Darkness Upon Growth and Development
The results described in the following pages were obtained by a series Of experimental observations begun in 1895 and continued until the close of the year 1902. Originally designed to analyze the phenomena of etiolation, the work has naturally led to a consider ation Of the more general relations of the plant to light, and it is believed that some important additions to the knowledge Of the sub ject have been made. The chief results of value have been obtained by long continued confinement Of the etiolating plants in dark cham bers from which light was entirely excluded.
