Abstract
Detached leaves, leaf disks, and sterile, detached roots of tobacco were sprayed, vacuum-infiltrated, incubated, or treated with gibberellic acid to test the influence of this chemical on the breakdown of nicotine. No statistically significant differences in nicotine content were observed due to these treatments.Keywords
