Summary

Four types of mit mutations induced with manganese are found in the following relative proportions: oxi3 > cob-box > oxi2 oxi1 −1. The frequences of loss of their respective mit + alleles in manganese-induced rho ] primary and secondary clones follow the same order. The possible interdependence between these two sets of data is discussed.
