Normale Morphogenese. Anomale Formbildung nach Zugabe von Cycloheximid (2·10{-5}mol) bzw. Cycloheximid (3·10{-5}mol) und Glukose (0,05 mol) bzw. Gougerotin (2·10{-3}mol): Vereinfachung des Zellmusters und blasiges Anschwellen der Halbzellen. Zeitraffung.

The film shows besides the development of a normal Micrasterias-cell the growing of cells under the influence of cycloheximid and gougerotin. After treatment with these inhibitors of protein synthesis young developmental stages are growing to misshaped bladderlike forms, showing a reduced cell pattern and a disturbed extension of chloroplast.
