Abstract

Chlamydomonas lends itself to a variety of long-term projects, ranging from a few weeks to years. Two areas of specific adaptability are the regeneration of flagella after deflagellation and the conditions surrounding the mating process. Experiments range from simple, first-year procedures, to complex projects involving radioactive labeling, confocal microscopy, and use of antibodies. Examples of past projects were described.
