Abstract: | <p>The investigations concerned the effect of some environmental factors on growth and zoospore production in Oedogonium cardiacum. Media and culture techniques were developed which favoured optimum growth, zoosporulation within a define time period.</p> <p>The normal sequence of cell divisions was established for young filaments. This was a problem of fundamental interest in algal ontogeny.</p> <p>The normal sequence of cell divisions in filaments was disturbed by treatment with ionizing radiation. A different ontogenetic sequence was induced by ionizing radiation and this sequence was often associated with those individuals which were classified as non-survivors.</p> |
