The lack of relation- ship is clearly indicated in Figure 5, which shows that the means of the cultures grown at five different temperatures varied from 201 /x to 208 p, a range of only seven microns. Nevertheless, we again noticed a considerable variability among the cultures within each temperature group, although it was much less pronounced within the ° C. group than in certain others. However, again, no definite trend

Using the data collected during these studies, we can calculate the average daily growth increment for all cultures at given temperatures. By plotting the average daily growth increment for each temperature group against the corresponding.
