Desoxyribonucleic Acid Content of the Ciliate Micronucleus
MOST existing accounts of the mitotic cycle in animals seem to indicate that the synthesis of desoxyribonucleic acid of the chromosome takes place during prophase of mitosis, so that at the end of this stage, the desoxyribonucleic acid content is double that of the interphase nucleus and this become...

Zusammenfassung: | MOST existing accounts of the mitotic cycle in animals seem to indicate that the synthesis of desoxyribonucleic acid of the chromosome takes place during prophase of mitosis, so that at the end of this stage, the desoxyribonucleic acid content is double that of the interphase nucleus and this becomes halved during anaphase
