Abstract
THE enzyme invertase has been shown to develop in washed ærated slices of storage tissues of higher plants1,2. Using Jerusalem artichoke stem tubers2 we have shown that this development is likely to be an expression of protein synthesis as it is suppressed by known inhibitors of this process.
