It should be understood that material marked D+M or M may contain either 5-MeO-MMT or 5-MeO-DMT or both. No breakdown was attempted in these cases. In the case of Marten et al. 1974 (ref. 5b) all values were generated as mean averages and harvests were not at optimum times.

3: Origin listed as "highly diverse source population used in plant breeding and genetic studies at the University of Minnesota, Department of Agronomy and Plant Genetics."

4: Grown in a controlled environment of 21^o C days/16^o C nights with an 8 hour day length.

5: DMT was found in only 75% of the individuals arising from this clone.

6: Material stored in plastic bags, frozen at -12^o C, until analyzed in 1969.

7: Harvested when 20-60 cm tall and still in vegetative stage.

8: 100 seedlings weighed 10-20 grams.
