Abstract
SUMMARY: A simple glass slide technique has been devised for the continuous microscopical observation of growth and infection of root hairs of clover seedlings. The method involves an aseptic cultivation of seedlings on microscope slides which are partly immersed in a mineral salts medium. The roots are protected by a cover-slip.Keywords
