Abstract Irradiation of embryo cells of Schistocerca gregaria in the two hours before mitotic anaphase produces a characteristic series of responses. An apparently insensitive stage is followed by the production of “stickiness” and side-arm bridges and finally by mitotic delay. Mitotic delay is complete at doses as low as 25 R. It is argued that “stickiness’ is due to a generalised physiological process and that side-arm bridges are due to a localised exchange of discrete sub-units of the chromatid. These conclusions are based upon the kinetics of appearance and dose-response and a comparison of haploid and diploid cells in a haplo-diploid mosaic embryo.
