Excerpt from The Structure and Development of Crown Gall, Vol. 255: A Plant Cancer
This Is a bulletin on the histology of crown gall. For five years the senior writer has been hammering away at the idea that crown gall of plants resembles malignant human tumors and can be made to throw a flood of light on the origin of the latter, which is still shrouded in obscurity and believed by the majority of pathologists to be of nonparasitic origin (vide Bashford, Reports of Imp. Cancer Research Fund).
