Abstract

Biology and Radiobiology of Anucleate Systems: II. Plant Cells encompasses the proceedings of International Symposium held in Mol, June 21-23, 1971. The symposium is organized by the Department of Radiobiology, Centre d'Etude de I'Energie Nucleaire (C.E.N./S.C.K.), Mol (Belgium) under the auspices of the Commission of the European Communities (EURATOM) and of the ""Relations Culturelles Internationales"" (Brussels). The aim of the three-day symposium is to bring together, for the first time, scientists working on anucleate systems obtained from bacteria and animal or plant cells.
This volume is composed of 16 papers relating specifically to plant cells. Each paper is organized according to the date and session when they have been presented.
This book will provide invaluable data for comparing the properties of anucleate Acetabularia with those of other anucleate cells, which would be very useful for better understanding of many problems concerning the nucleocytoplasmic relationships and cellular differentiation in normal and irradiated cells.
