## Abstract The DNA base composition was studied in 9 reptilian species (4 chelonians, 3 saurians, and 2 ophidians) by the thermal denaturation method. This preliminary investigation has brought to light differences in GC percentages and in the shape of melting curves between chelonian DNA and that
Equations were determined for the dependency of the melting temperature (TJ of DNA upon the logarithm of the sodium ion concentration, for four DNA samples of widely diflerent base compositions (eoc). The dopee of these T, versus log M equations were found to decrease with increasing Boc of the samp
