In plants grown from seed collected from an area considered to be relatively free from atmospheric pollutants, bud formation was decreased by 62% compared with only 18% in plants arising from seed harvested from a polluted area. The results raise the interesting speculative point that in certain circumstances adaptation to polluted atmospheres might be linked to acid precipitation tolerance.
