Extract

Stadler and Sprague in a series of papers (1936) succeeded in demonstrating by a genetical method the effect of ultra-violet radiation in maize pollen, and found that in their experiments in the X-ray series the chromosomal changes are very common, while in the ultra-violet series they are rare.
