| Abstract | Cosegregation of cell wall and DNA of a lysis-negative mutant of Bacillus subtilis was examined by continuously labeling (i) cell wall, (ii) DNA, and (iii) both cell wall and DNA. After four to five generations of chase in liquid media it was found by light microscope autoradiography that the numbers of wall segregation units per cell are 29 and 9 in rich and minimal medium, respectively. Under the same conditions the numbers of segregation units of DNA were almost 50% lower: 15 and 5, respectively. Simultaneous labeling of cell wall and DNA (iii) provided figures almost identical to those obtained for cell wall alone, (i), implying cosegregation of the two components. Statistical analysis ruled out their random distribution into daughter cells. Measurements of the positions of grain clusters at the end of the chase period along chains of cells, each derived from a single cell at the beginning of chase, show that cell wall units are localized according to a symmetrical pattern, whereas those of DNA are distributed in an asymmetrical but highly regular way. It appears that of two cell wall units of the same age one only has a strand of DNA attached to it. We present a simple diagrammatic model of cell wall organization and DNA-cell wall association which is compatible with our observations. Finally, we discuss previous experiments pertinent to cosegregation of cell wall and DNA obtained with cells grown on solid media as well as with germinating spores; an explanation for the independent segregation of cell wall and DNA observed in the latter case is advanced. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
