OSTI ID:5663195
The present investigation showed by means of autoradiography that the cyanobacterium Microcystis wesenbergii did not incorporate (/sup 3/H)thymidine at nanomolar concentrations, whereas its associated heterotrophic bacteria appearing in the gelatinous cover of the cyanobacterium became labeled. Several other tested cyanobacteria and algae did not incorporate (/sup 3/H)thymidine.
