Résumé

Les noyaux somatiques de embryons du puceronMyzus persicae prirent la marque de la thymidine H3 30 min après son injection dans l'hémocoele maternelle. L'absorption des molécules de cette substance à travers l'épithélium folliculaire et les membranes de l'embryon fut donc très rapide. Le marquage des métaphses s'est produit après 90 min. Dans les chromosomesX, l'incorporation fut nettement tardive.
