TETRAPLOIDY IN FLAX
Tetraploid forms of the flax variety, Redwing, and the F1 flax hybrid, Bison × Redwing, were most easily obtained by treatment of the epicotyl of seedlings with colchicine in lanolin emulsion. Seeds of the tetraploid forms were considerably larger than those of the diploid; but, because of their lower fertility and later maturity, yield and quality were definitely inferior.
