Summary Poly(A) RNA from S phase, G2 phase and starved macroplasmodia of Physarum contain mRNA sequences which when translated in vitro, yield similar patterns of polypeptides after fluorography. Reassociation of nick-translated DNA (Cot) allows the isolation of highly labeled single copy DNA which, after saturation hybridization with poly(A) RNA, gives values of 23% for growth and 17% for starvation. Homologous cDNA/poly(A) RNA hybridization reactions (Rot) indicate that 22–28% of the genome is transcribed during growth and 12% during starvation and that about half of the cDNA reacts with 0.1% of the genome and could represent 50–80 RNA species, each present in about 1,000 copies per nucleus. Up to 25,000 different RNA species, 1–5 copies each per nucleus, are estimated to be present during growth, and about 15,000 during starvation. Heterologous cDNA/poly(A) RNA hybridization reactions (Rot) indicate that the RNA sequences in S and G2 phase of the cell cycle are similar, with RNA sequences being more abundant in G2 phase. During starvation about 25% of the sequences present during growth cannot be detected and those sequences present during growth have become diluted during starvation.
