Anticonidiogenic effect of hydroxyurea on Neurospora crassa]

Conidiation induced in a low sugar-ammonium medium (or by other means such as full starvation or heat shock) is almost fully prevented by hydroxyurea. In a parallel manner the DNA/RNA and DNA/protein ratios are prevented from increasing.     

Inheritance of phenotypic plasticity in soft chess,Bromus mollis L. (Gramineae)

Summary Phenotypic plasticity, measured by the phenotypic variation of a genotype living under diverse environments, was shown to be under genetic control in annual grass,Bromus mollis. Genetic polymorphism and phenotypic plasticity appear to be alternative strategies of adaptation in plant populations.     

Deoxyribonuclease immobilized on the erythrocytes

Summary Bovine pancreatic deoxyribonuclease (DNase I) was immobilized on human erythrocytes with several procedures. DNase immobilized on the erythrocytes by chromic chloride showed DNase activity in vitro. Other binding procedures inhibit the immobilized DNase activity.
