By delaying the time of gamma irradiation of 72 h larvae, pretreated at 48 h with 5% chlorophyllin (CHLN), it was established that the overall inhibiting effect of CHLN in somatic cells of Drosophila, as measured in the wing spot test, persists for about 4 days or until the time of cessation of the proliferation of wing anlagen. In the same population of cells, some spot classes gave evidence of an inhibitory...
