A Cytological Analysis of the Antimetabolite Activity of 5-Hydroxyuracil in Vicia faba Roots

The effects of 5-hydroxyuracil (5-HU) (isobarbituric acid) upon cell elongation, mitosis, and DNA synthesis were studied in Vicia faba roots. 5-HU had no consistent effect upon root elongation. It blocked DNA synthesis (analyzed by photometric measurements of Feulgen dye in nuclei) during the first...
