Abstract
The organization of plant cells (or any other genetic elements, such as organelles) into aggregates modifies the expected distribution of mutants in clones. The reason for the modification, and its effect on the use of the Luria-Delbrück fluctuation test, are discussed. The Luria-Delbriick test was used to show that the trait for chlorate resistance in cultured rose-cell aggregates appeared spontaneously and in the absence of chlorate ion.
