The tolerance of the unicellular blue-green alga Anacystis nidulans to nitrosoguanidine increased from an initial level of 5 ~zg NTG/ml to 20 fzg/ml during the course of 10 successive transfers in NTG-supplemented medium. Single treatments of log-phase cells with NTG at pH 5--6 resulted in a signif

## Abstract Growth of the blueβgreen alga __Anacystis nidulans__ treated with methyl methane sulphonate (MMS) at pH 5 or 6 was better than that at pH 7 or 8, both in regard to the duration of the lagβphase and the growth rate. Toxicity of MMS was directly proportional to the temperature at which th
The effect of a graded concentration (0.05-0.6 mmol/l) of sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (NaDDC) on the growth rate of Anacystis nidulans was found to be concentration-dependent. A 50% inhibition (Iso) of the growth rate was observed at 0.28 mmol/l of NaDDC. A sudden decrease in cellular absorbance a
