Conjugatedivision is continued when the aecidiosporegerminates and a mycelium of binucleatecells is produced. The sporophyte of therusts is thus normally inaugurated in thefertile cells of the aecidium. It is not unusual to find spores andvegetative cells which contain three ormore nuclei ; in these, as in the binucleatecells, and, indeed, in multinucleate cells ofmany different groups of plants, conjugate.
