Abstract: SummaryRabbits maintained on a torula yeast, Vit. E deficient diet developed a severe and rapidly progressing muscular dystrophy. This condition was not prevented by addition to the diet of 1 ppm selenium or of supplements of dl-alpha tocopheryl acetate alone or in combination.

E were involved in the particular experimental diets used. A marked alopecia was observed in all animals fed diets not containing a natural feedstuff.
