โฆ Synopsis
U.V. induced mutants of nitrogen-fixing blue-green algae appear to have substantial promise for studies in biochemical mechanism of nitrogen-fixation. Many types of U.V. induced morphological, physiological and biochemical mutant strains have been isolated in Chlamydomonas

After exposure of cells to N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine a series of stable mutants of the marine coccoid blue-green alga, Agmenellum quadruplicatum, were isolated. 1. Two of these mutants were blocked at nitrate reductase and required nitrite or ammonium ion for growth. 2. Four of the muta
