Abstract
Axillary buds from different species of Nicotiana plants have been subcultured in vitro after exposure to various gamma ray doses.
A split-doe effect has been shown.
When doses fractions are given at time intervals higher than 15 mn, there is a significant split dose recovery.
If split-doses are separated by a long enough time, 2 or 3 hours, a protective effect from the first irradiation towards the following may appear; but for times shorter than 15 mn, the split-dose effect may be a decrease of survival.
