Abstract
ATTEMPTS to solve the problem of the 'bolter' condition in domestic potato varieties have appeared from time to time in these columns. Thomas1, for example, demonstrated that bolters differ from normal plants by the presence of a small supernumerary chromosome, though Carson and Howard2 have found no differences between 'bolter' and normal in this respect. They showed, however, that the 'bolter' condition could be transmitted to its progeny when crossed with normal plants.
