. The relative growth of neonatal and maternal lymphocytes was studied in PHA‐stimulated mixed short‐time whole‐blood cultures, with particular regard to a possible inhibition of the maternal cells. For comparison, neonatal and maternal cells were grown separately. No uniform inhibition was observed, although there was an average 34% depression of growth of the maternal cells in the mixed cultures.
