Abstract
It is shown that the flavin inhibitors mepacrine and lumichrome have a greater effect on the growth of illuminated than unilluminated static liquid cultures of Phycomyces. The possible relevance of these findings to our understanding of the mechanism of phototropism is discussed.This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
