[Study on a synchronized population of the antimitotic effect of cycloheximide at various phases of the cell cycle in Allium sativum L].
The effect on the entry in mitosis, induced in synchronized meristematic cells of Allium sativum L. by a treatment with cycloheximide (10 mug/ml-30 min) at different phases of the cell cycle has been investigated. In all cases cells enter mitosis after a long delay but it appears that the delay induced on G1 cells is longer. Incorporation of 3H leucine is immediately inhibited at any stage of the cell cycle.
