Sequential autoradiographed sections through the shoot apical meristem of Arabidopsis thaliana treated for six hours with a solution of H/sup 3/- thymidine in combination with 0.1% Tween 20 and dilute mineral solution reveal a differential pattern of labeling, indicative of differential rates of DNA synthesis. This pattern corresponds to the histological zonation of the apex and reveals a sub-apical block of cells in which the amount of incorporation is significantly lower than in the adjacent flank cells.
