✦ Synopsis

The temperature coefficient of the δ(13)C value over the temperature range 14 to 40° has been measured for plants with different photosynthetic pathways. C3 plants (6 species) had a temperature coefficient of-0.0125‰/(o), C3 plants (5 species)-0.046‰/(o), "C4-like" CAM (2 species)-0.13‰/(o) and "C3-like" CAM (2 species)-0.019‰/(o). The relative temperature insensitivity of the δ(13)C value is in contrast with the measured temperature dependence of δ(13)C values for ribulose-diphosphate carboxylase in vitro, and to the temperature response of photosynthesis. The temperature sensitivity of the "C4-like" CAM plants was the relatively greatest; this is consistent with the evidence that high night temperature inhibits dark CO2 fixation. The same inhibition may occur in the "C3-like" CAM plants but it would not have as significant an effect on the δ(13)C value as these plants are primarily dependent on primary fixation of exogenous CO2 via the ribulose-diphosphate carboxylase reaction.

The 6~3C values of whole body samples of the beetle Tribolium castaneum are closely correlated with the c5~3C values of the plant carbon in its diet. The correlation is always high for diets ranging from 100% C4 to 100% C 3 plant material. The degree of correlation is independent of the growth rate

## Abstract The temperature‐sensitive DNA polymerase mutator mutants A58 and L98 of T4 are less inhibited by 3′‐Fluorothymidine than the T4 wild type and the antimutator mutant CB121, in consequence of the assumed differences between the polymerase‐associated exonuclease activities. This interpreta
