Notes:
Visible light of moderate intensity causes two and perhaps three types of division inhibition in Euglena gracilis are related cells. Fluorescent light causes a general inhibition of growth and division which is temperature-dependent. Pigmentation or complex organic media partially lifts this inhibition. A second type of inhibition, which is transient, can be caused by either fluorescent or incandescent light, and is found with an irreversibly bleached strain of Euglena grown on a limiting concentration of acetate; this inhibition could not be demonstrated in cells grown on limiting concentrations of glucose.
