Zusammenfassung

Die nach Röntgenbestrahlung von Embryonen vonPlatypoecilus maculatus auftretende erbliche Überproduktion von Makromelanophoren (Bildung von Prämelanomen) beruht offenbar auf einer Vielzahl von Mutationen eines über alle Chromosomen verteilten Systems von Repressionsgenen, das die für die Makromelanophorenbildung verantwortlichen Gene kontrolliert.
