Abstract
In somatic hybrids of each of four chlorate-resistant cell lines of Nicotiana tabacum L., two of which were also nitrate-nonutilizing, and a common chlorate-sensitive parent, nitrate utilization and/or chlorate resistance were found to be recessive traits. Complementation for nitrate utilization was observed in somatic hybrids of the two nitrate-nonutilizing cell lines. No chlorate-resistant or nitrate-nonutilizing seedlings were detected among a large number of progeny resulting from the self-fertilization of a somatic hybrid plant one of whose parents was one of the nitrate-nonutilizing cell lines.
