The cells at a in each portion of the figure are at an earlier stage of conjugation than those at 6. n, nucleus; c, chloroplast. Mount in a little water, without disturbing the relative position of the filaments, and examine first with , then with Note: (a) Filaments lying paired, as in Fig. 155, B, connected by con- jugating tubes. (J) Filaments in which the tubes have not been fully formed but appear only as projections (Fig. 155, A, a). (c) The formation of ellipsoidal bodies, zygospores, by the union of the protoplasts of two conjugating cells. (d) Intermediate stages between cells in their ordinary condition and cells containing a single zygospore or entirely emptied of their Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Bergen, Joseph Y.
