Abstract

as a receiving antenna, while the other electrode is connected to ground. In this particular experimental arrange- ment the distance between the trans- mitter (frequency generator, Toellner Electronic, M. Werner, Frankfurt, FRG, or pulse generator, Hewlett- Packard 214B) and the receiver (fusion chamber) was about 5 m. The electromagnetic waves induce a voltage between the two platinum wires (which represent mainly a capacitance), which is great enough to elicit dielec- trophoresis or fusion. Experiments were carried out on meso- phyll protoplasts obtained from leaves of Arena sativa by enzymatic digestion (4). The protoplasts were incubated in an isotonic mannitol solution (0.5 M) which was pipetted between the elec- trodes. The distance between the elec- trodes was 200 pro. Cell-chain forma-
