Certain mathematical artifacts which had been a p pended by others to Luria and Delbruck's [Genetics 28: 491 -5 1 1, 19431 model of spontaneous mutagenesis in bacterial populations have added confusion to the modeling and measurement of spontaneous mutation rates. Additional confusion arises when mo
## Abstract The mutation rate to thioguanine resistance was 3.11 × 10^−6^ in a near diploid V79 hamster cell line and 7.58 × 10^−8^ in a near tetraploid derivative produced with colchicine. The specific activities of glucose‐6‐phosphate dehydrogenase and phosphoglycerate kinase of the tetraploid li
The risk of cancer can be increased by both genetic predisposition and environmental exposure. A common mechanism, mutation, may be involved in both. The rate of mutation in germ cells is the principal determinant of the incidence of genetically predisposed individuals, whereas the rate in somatic
An algorithm is described for calculating the probability distribution of the number of mutant colonies arising in a Luria-Delbrtick fluctuation experiment subject to a plating efficiency of less than 100%. A table is constructed to facilitate the estimation of spontaneous mutation rates taking into
