Guido Pontecorvo was elected a Fellow of The Royal Society in 1955 for his contributions to the genetics of Drosophila and the fungus Aspergillus nidulans . Pontecorvo was a leading British geneticist, prominent in the decade preceding the discovery of DNA, who enriched our understanding of genes and whose pioneering work on the parasexual cycle in fungi found application in human somatic cell genetics. Known to friends as Ponte, he had a strong personality. Somewhat irascible but warm, with a wry sense of humor, he made many lifelong friends and acquired a large body of admirers.

The distribution of constitutive heterochromatin has been examined by C-banding in two somatic cell lines, grown in vitro, from a female Microtus agrestis. One line retains one intact X chromosome together with the short arm of the other X chromosome, while the other cell line retains only the short arm of one X chromosome. Thus, each cell line has lost substantial amounts of heterochromatin from the sex chromosomes, but this material has been deleted from the cells, and not translocated to other chromosomes. Nonetheless, both cell lines continue to propagate well in vitro.
