The temperature dependencies of the resistivity and magnetization of a series of Ni 2+ x Mn 1- x Ga ( x = 0-0.09) alloys were investigated. Along with the anomalies associated with ferromagnetic and martensitic transitions, well-defined anomalies were observed at the temperature of premartensitic transformation. The premartensitic phase existing over the temperature range 200-260 K in the stoichiometric Ni 2 MnGa is progressively suppressed by the martensitic phase with increasing Ni content and has vanished in the Ni 2.09 Mn 0.91 Ga composition.
