| Title | Referee's Report by R A [Ronald Aylmer] Fisher on two papers, 'The action of radiations on bacteria. IV - the lethal action of soft X-rays' and 'The action of radiations on bacteria. V - the target theory', by R B Haines and D E Lea |
| Creator | Fisher; Sir; Ronald Aylmer (1890-1962); statistician and geneticist |
| Date | [January 1939] |
| Description | Paper reference code: B.68 and B.69
Recommends that paper IV could be printed but paper V should be omitted. The experimental results in paper IV should be put on record if they are sound, despite the low precision of the data. Sees no reason for the extensive discussion of 'target' regions in paper V.
