Distribution of chromatids at mitosis.

The distribution of labeled chromatids at the second mitosis after labeling with tritiated thymidine is random in both Vicia faba (the broad bean) and Potorous tridactylis (the rat kangaroo). This finding is contrary to that predicted by the hypothesis that chromatids containing "grandparent" polynucleotide templates segregate from those containing "parent" templates.

Platelet adhesiveness in diabetes mellitus.

Platelet adhesiveness has been assessed on whole blood from a series of 34 diabetics and 50 control subjects using adenosine diphosphate (A.D.P.) and by adherence to glass microspherules (ballotini). Using both techniques it was possible to demonstrate a significant increase in platelet adhesiveness in the diabetic patients.

Strandedness of Vicia faba chromosomes as revealed by enzyme digestion studies.

Chromosomes and nuclei isolated from neutral formalin-fixed Vicia faba lateral roots were treated with trypsin, pepsin, RNase, or DNase. Only trypsin affected the morphology of the chromosomes and nuclei. The appearance of the chromosomes after trypsin digestion indicated that each chromatid contained four strands that could be seen with an ordinary light microscope. The experiments are interpreted as indicating that mitotic chromosomes of Vicia faba are multistranded and that the linear continuity of the chromosome is dependent on protein.
