 plants to become fasciated, this fact is only negative, and hence largely 

 valueless evidence. Table A is necessarily incomplete. Owing to the

scattered nature of the literature on the subject, records which would 

 add other famihes to the fasciated column probably have been overlooked. 

 One must also remember that many families are small, inconspicuous 

 and limited in their distribution, facts which would often make them 

 inaccessible to observers. From my own studies, I would conclude that 

 there is no evidence for believing that the individuals of any particular 

 family may always be exempt from fasciation, but on the contrary, it 

 would seem reasonable to adopt the view that all vascular plants under 

 the "right" conditions may become fasciated. Sorauer (1906, p. 334) 

 practically holds this opinion, while de Vries (1910; 2, p. 502) believes
