title: Synthesis of chloroplast ribonucleic acid in Chlamydomonas  reinhardtii toluene-treated cells.
abstract: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii cells treated with toluene at 0 degrees C and 25 degrees C incorporate ribonucleoside triphosphates (NTPs) into chloroplast RNA at 25 degrees C and also at 35 degrees C. The incorporation requires all four NTPs and Mg2+, and is completely inhibited by DNase, RNase, actinomycin D (40 microgram/ml) and rifampicin (350 microgram/ml).  However, the incorporation is almost totally insensitive to both alpha-amanitin and streptolydigin at 200 microgram/ml.
