1903 Science 1 May 706/2 A reduction of temperature gave rise to parthenogenetic spore formation.., as was also the case when water was plasmolytically withdrawn from the cells.
1944 Amer. Jrnl. Bot. 31 378/1 To determine the nature of the forces accounting for turgor in cells, promising results have been obtained by comparing the OP [= osmotic pressure] of the intact living cell measured plasmolytically (Og) with the OP of the expressed cell sap measured cryoscopically (On).
1991 Plant Sci. 79 206/1 This was the first report of hybrid plants being successfully produced using plasmolytically induced cytoplasts.
