✦ Synopsis

The control co-ordinating cell division with cell growth has been investigated in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Twenty-five mutants altered in this control have been isolated which have the same growth rate as wild type but divide at a smaller cell size. The mutants define two genes wee 1 and wee 2, both of which are involved in a control initiating mitosis when the cell attains a critical size.

The effect of ethylene on petiole growth of the Fringed Waterlily (Nymphoides peltata (S.G . Gmelin) O . Kuntze) changes during leaf ontogeny . During early development (before expansion of laminae), ethylene causes an increase in both cell number and cell size ; later in development, promotion of r
