Notes
Results of autoradiographic studies of [3H-]thymidine incorporation support a model of macronuclear DNA content regulation involving an action upon the extremes of DNA content: elimination of S phase in cells with large DNA content, additional S phase in cells with small DNA content. The frequency of each of these phenomena is about 20%: the inequality of frequencies obtained with the two types of sister cells (proters and opisthes) is related to the asymetry of cytodieresis observed in this ciliate.
