The Aharonov-Bohm effect in a one-dimensional (1D) ring containing a gas offractionally charged excitations is considered. It is shown that the lowtemperature behavior of the system is identical to that of free electrons with(integer) charge $e$. This is a direct consequence of the fact that the totalcharge in the ring is quantized in units of the electron charge. Anomalousoscillations of the persistent current amplitude with temperature are predictedto occur as a direct manifistation of the fractional nature of thequasiparticle charge. A 1D conducting ring with gate induced periodicalpotential is discussed as a possible set-up for an experimental observation ofthe predicted phenomenon.Comment: 4 pages, RevTex, uuencoded figure
