Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of a study conducted by the author on the production of alkaloids in belladonna plants. The author's research demonstrates that there is a wide range of variation in the alkaloid content of belladonna plants grown from seed and that the characteristic of alkaloid production is transmissible to the progeny through seed. Whether this characteristic is changed by vegetative propagation has yet to be determined. There is considerable interest in increasing the alkaloidal content of belladonna plants, as alkaloids are used in the manufacture of drugs. The author's research provides valuable information that could be used to develop more productive belladonna plants.
