PIRATE 2 
A. —Bean plants from Experiment 2 grown in uninoculated soil at temperatures 
of 29.3 0 , 26.6®, 23.5 0 , 21.5 0 ,18.5°, 16 0 , and 13.2° C. Germination and growth occurred 
throughout the entire range. Fifteen seeds were grown in each pot. Dry-weight 
determination and height of plants are recorded in Table VI. 
B. —Beans grown in soil inoculated with Corticium vagum and held at the various 
temperatures as indicated in A. Very slight injury occurred at 29.3 0 C. (See Table 
VI.) 
C. —Cotton plants which survived in infected soil at the various temperatures of 
28°, 26°, 23.5 0 18 0 , and 15 0 C. Seven seeds were planted in each pot. At the same 
temperatures in soil to which Corticium vagum had not been added the control plants 
grew perfectly, except that at 15 0 C. only half of the seeds germinated. (Photograph
