Humans and mammals develop tumors upon stress (radiation, carcinogens, etc). Do plants and insects do too?

Question

Any examples of insects like cockroaches, flys, etc or plants developing tumors?

Answer 1

Insects probably don't live long enough to get tumors. Tumors are really nature's lottery. The odds of any one cell getting messed up enough (by radiation, stress, carcinogens, etc) to become cancerous are extremely low. But we have so many cells, and we live so long, eventually, we win the lottery.

I think trees get "tumors", they have a lot of cells and live a long time.

But insects don't have that many cells and they don't live that long, so they probably don't have much of a chance of winning nature's lottery.

Answer 2

I don't know but radiation does affect plants in strange ways.
