Nuclear events during conjugation in the poorly studied model ciliate Paramecium jenningsi

Ciliated protists are highly differentiated unicellular eukaryotes that possess special sexual processes (conjugation and autogamy) that rely on their unique nuclear dimorphism, i.e., the presence of both a germline micronucleus (MIC) and a somatic macronucleus (MAC) in a single cell. The sexual pro...
