Abstract
CLINOSTATS provide a means for ground based studies of what happens when plants are subjected to null-gravity conditions1. The incubation period of leaf rust on gravity-compensated bean plants is shorter than on non-compensated controls2. Here we describe the influence of gravity compensation on crown gall development in the carrot (Daucus carota).
