## Abstract Myoglobin synthesis was compared in cell cultures of leg (red) and breast (white) muscle of chick embryos. In leg muscle cultures a rapidly increasing amino acid incorporation into myoglobin begins two days after muscle cell fusion; in breast muscle cultures no comparable increase was o
Maximal rates of oxygen consumption in vitro have been measured under standardized conditions at three test temperatures (5 ~ 15 ~ 25 ~ on minced preparations of red muscle from l0 species of shallow-water marine teleost fishes. These fishes came from three different geographic areas, two with cool
