Several strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens and A. rhizogenes were shown to form tumors on runners of the diploid strawberry species Fragaria vesca L. Tumors, weighing from 0.1 to 8.3 mg, appeared from 2 to 4.5 weeks after infection. The majority of tumors tested for opine synthesis by high-voltage paper electrophoresis analysis showed positive results. These results demonstrate that diploid strawberry plants are susceptible to infection with Agrobacterium and that there are differences in the relative virulence of Agrobacterium strains.

S-Carboxymethyl derivatives of the high-sulphur components of reduced Merino wool have been subdivided by chromatography into 17 fractions, the amino acid compositions of which are reported. Tryptic, chymotryptic, and thermolysin digests of each fraction have been studied by high-voltage paper electrophoresis at pH 3�5 and 6�5. The results suggest that the high-sulphur proteins consist of families of proteins probably containing common structural features. Evidence is presented that the heterogeneity of high-sulphur proteins is not artefactual.

Two major improvements on a high voltage paper electrophoresis apparatus are described. Special tinned brass radiator plates have been very effective for cooling the system. Multichambered electrolyte vessels have facilitated the separation of various biological mixtures at several pH's in a single run at room temperature.
