Abstract
Uptake of Phosporus-P32 by CUSCUTA EPITHYMUM parasitic of TRIFOLIUM REPENS. — Filaments of C. epithymum, parasitic on T. repens, partially immersed in a solution containing KH2P32O4, uptake from the host solely, or mainly, radioactive ortophosphate. Radioactive hexose phosphates and radioactive nucleotides present in the extracts prepared from C. epithymum, appear to be the result of the metabolization by the dodder of the orthophosphate uptaken from the host.
