Mitotic Frequency

Cycloheximide blocked cell division at interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, and telophase in Jerusalem artichoke tuber tissue. Blocking at anaphase did not occur or was very infrequent. In any cell, the location of the block depended upon the stage of the cell cycle reached at the time of cycloheximide addition. In general, cycloheximide caused similar blocks in interphase and mitosis in cells of synchronised broad bean root tips. A reduction of mitotic frequency occurred after about 8 hr in cycloheximide, indicating a reversion of chromosome coiling.

SUMMARYPrototheca richardsi, an unpigmented heterotrophic alga, causes growth inhibition in amphibian larvae and has proved refractory to culturein Vitro.P. richardsireplication is dependent on regular passaging through tadpole digestive systems; uptake of thymidine by free-livingProtothecacells and incorporation into DNA are very low by comparison with leucine uptake and incorporation into protein, but DNA synthesis is detectable in cells isolated from tadpole intestines. DNA replication was elicited 6–8 h after ingestion in protothecans fed to tadpoles and subsequently re-isolated from them, providing that the tadpoles were fed subsequent to the ingestion. It appears that passaging through tadpole intestines provides an essential stimulus to maintaining an active cell division cycle inP. richardsi.

Outer Area

DNA and RNA contents are studied in Jerusalem artichoke tuber explants cultured in vitro after gamma irradiation (0–5 × 105 rads (1 rad = 10 mGy)). The lower part of the explants is stimulated as soon as in contact with the medium. This stimulated area is still able to synthesize DNA and RNA up to 104 rads. An histological and cytological study shows that tissue neoformations can be observed up to 6000 rads in this outer area and that gamma rays seem to keep the cells in a "premitotic" state for a longer or shorter period according to the applied radiation dose.

Jerusalem Artichoke Tuber

Carbohydrate and nitrogen budgets were studied in Jerusalem artichoke tuber explants cultured in vitro after gamma irradiation (0 to 106 rads (1 rad = 10−2 J/kg)). A certain level of reducing sugars is reached and retained in all the explants and, in all cases, an increase of protein nitrogen is observed. The highly irradiated tissues have a very disturbed metabolism that involves in particular, amino acid leaching into the culture medium.
