Potato tubers of the up-to-date variety were irradiated with 20 krads of gamma rays using a 200-C Co/sup 60/ source. The irradiated tubers were cold stored and then allowed to sprout. Sprouting was completely inhibited. Both irradiated and unirradiated tubers were used for the preparation of mash on which germinating barley embryos were planted. In root meristems from embryos grown on normal potato mash, 9 cells had micronuclei out of 3022 cells. There were 64 micronuclei out of 2811 cells studied in root tips grown on irradiated potato mash. (J.S.R.)
