Cytology As in many species of Chlamydomonas, the protoplast rotates 90° within the wall prior to cell division. Cytokinesis in this species is initiated by the appearance of a furrow in the region of the nucleus, and opposite the position of the pyrenoids or dividing pyrenoid (Fig. 20). The first division occurs perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cell. This coincides with the description given by Kater (1929) for C. nasuta, Akins (1941) for Carteria cnicifcm. Bold (1949) for C. chlamydogama, and by Buffaloe (1958) for four species of Chlamydomonas. The two daughter cells usually undergo one more division which takes place in the same manner (Figs. 23 and 29). Cytokinesis is unilateral in the cytoplasm surrounding the nucleus (Figs. 20 and 23). Buffaloe (1958) reported that for four species of Chlamydomonas he studied, there was no exact synchrony between the division of the nucleus and the division of the pyrenoid. The same is true for the present organism, but there is synchrony between division of the pyrenoid and.
