Length and breadth of eggs were measured in ringed populations of the Great Tit. During a part of the study volume and weight were also measured, but this did not give additional information, viz. variation in specific weight of fresh eggs and deviations from calculated volume were within the limits

In order to evaluate the potential genetic resources of the wild relatives of crop plants, allozyme variation at 28 loci was determined for 28 Israel populations of Hordeum spontaneum, the progenitor of cultivated barley. Etectrophoretic properties of these loci and their variants are described. The
The explanation of the maintenance of the large amount of genetic variation in natural populations is a major problem faced by evolutionary geneticists. It is proposed that Nucella lapiHus would make a suitable model for the study of this problem. The presence of visible interpopulation variation in
Eighty mutants in 17 ascospore character genes were studied for their conversion patterns. The correlation between conversion pattern and mutagenic origin, previously found in genes b1 and b2 was extended to all the genes studied. Aberrant 4:4 asci were found in most genes irrespective of their conv
