The growth curve of D. discoideum on complete and restricted media Spores, taken from a 4—6 day stock plate, were suspended in salt solution and spread on glucose peptone agar with cc. of a 48-hour broth culture of A. aero- genes. The initial spore count per plate was 1 X 10'\ At intervals, duplicate plates were harvested using a finger and 10 cc. distilled water delivered in two batches. Control experiments using known numbers of cells indicated a recovery in excess of 95% of the cells on the plates. Replicate counts with the hemocy- tometer were made of each harvest. Figure 1 shows the results of two experiments (upper curve). A technical difficulty precluded the use of this system for studying the aggrega- •z. • . 10 TIME IN HRS. FIGURE 1.
