This Mutabilis seedling was treated with Trifluralin, as to attempt in doubling its chromosomes making it a tetraploid. It has yet to be tested for ploidy level, but looking at the changes that have occurred, there may be a possibility, that it has. Again this will be used with the 3c 33d in a breeding line.
