Mutants of Anacystis nidulans tolerant to high levels of Co, Ni,Cu, Zn and Cd were obtained by repeated subculturing at strongly inhibitory levels of metal. For instance, the level of Zn at which-1strong inhibition occurred was raised from 1.45 to 16.5 mg 1(^-1) Zn after 75 subcultures. Isolates res...
