Burnet wrote further about the theory in his 1959 book " The Clonal Selection Theory of Acquired Immunity ".

The clonal selection theory was proved correct when Sir Gustav Nossal showed that each B cell always produces only one antibody.
4.
It has been suggested that the phenomena that the theory describes in terms of networks are also explained by clonal selection theory.
5.
In 1958 Gustav Nossal and Lederberg showed that one B cell always produces only one antibody, which was the first evidence for clonal selection theory.

Throughout this time the journal published the research of eminent Australian scientists, including Sir Douglas Mawson and Sir Frank Macfarlane Burnet, whose groundbreaking clonal selection theory was published in the journal in 1957.

According to the clonal selection theory, at birth, an animal randomly generates a vast diversity of lymphocytes ( each bearing a unique antigen receptor ) from information encoded in a small family of genes.

"' Clonal selection theory "'is a scientific theory in immunology that explains the functions of cells ( lymphocytes ) of the immune system in response to specific antigens invading the body.

:I don't have time right now for a more complete response, but take a look at Clonal selection theory-that's generally thought to be the primary mechanism of immunity.
