In conclusion, hypothesis 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 were confirmed while 1 and 2 were rejected. The data shows that concentration B of Methyl Jasmonate (MJ) caused a smaller decrease in average gall size in injection and mist when compared to concentration A. Injection of MJ caused a larger decrease in average gall size when compared to mist. Ethanol injection and mist caused no decrease in crown gall size or protein production. In these controls, the crown gall grew at a natural pace and protein concentrations were unchanged. It was clear that a lower concentration of MJ was more effective than a higher concentration. There were a number of variables that could have caused this; perhaps higher concentrations become toxic or are ineffective at treating what is necessary. Also, injection of MJ was more effective at inducing regression of cancer. This could also be due to a number of variables. It is likely that a more direct contact of MJ to a crown gall is correlated to a more effective dose and decrease in gall size. Since the control (ethanol) groups caused no gall regression or protein concentration increase, it is clear that MJ is the cause of regression and protein concentration increase.
