Abstract
Brian and Hemming1 have recently shown that gibberellic acid is relatively inactive in inducing the elongation of internode segments of dwarf pea. They have found, however, that in the presence of indolylacetic acid, gibberellic acid induces a more marked increase in the extension of the internode segments.
