| Abstract: | Abstract. The duration of the G1 period in meristematic cells has been measured directly at two different temperatures by using a synchronous cell population 'labelled' as binucleate by treatment with caffeine. By studying the uptake of a radioactive DNA-precursor, it proved possible to determine the duration of the G1 period in relation to the total interphase duration, at two temperatures tested, and to demonstrate that the relationship remained constant. |
