✦ Synopsis

The growth rates of thirty clones of Prorocentrum micans, twenty-two clones of Gonyaulax excavata and fifteen clones of Scrippsiella trochoidea, isolated from eight different water samples were measured under two environmental conditions. There was significant genetic variability in growth rates between clones. The amount of genetic variability between clones ranged from 10-27Β°7o (coefficient of variation) in Prorocentrum micans, 31-52070 in Gonyaulax excavata and 11-2007o in Scrippsiella trochoidea. Unlike Gonyaulax excavata and Scrippsiella trochoidea many different Prorocentrum micans clones had identical growth rates.

In order to measure differences in the pollen growth rate of numerous lines of maize and to investigate the main features of their genetic control, gametophyte growth was studied in vitro and in vivo. In vitro pollen tube growth of twenty inbred lines and seven hybrids was measured; a remarkable var

In both photosynthetic (Pyrodinium bahamense, Gonyaulax polyedra, Pyrocystis lunula, P. noctiluca, P. fusijormis) and nonphotosynthetic (Noctiluca miliaris) bioluminescent dinoflagellates chemical stimulation can by-pass mechanical stimulation. The effective ions are Cat+, K+, NH4+ and H+. Other ch
