Conjugation in the eukaryotic single-celled organism Euplotes aediculatus (Protozoa, Ciliophora): A focus on nuclear divisions, morphogenesis and pheromones
Ciliates are unique in having nuclear dimorphism (i.e., possessing both a germline micronucleus and a somatic macronucleus in one cell), and undergo dramatic changes during their sexual process (known as conjugation). Here we investigate the nuclear events and morphogenetic processes during conjugat...
