Fig. 5. Ultrastuctural images of cytokinesis in a polyspermic zygote of S.
lomentaria. These sections are shown from the consecutive serial sections
of the same cell. (A) This polyspermic germinate has four nuclei after
mitosis, and three nuclei (N) are observed in this section. Cell divisions
(arrows) do not proceed simultaneously; cytokinesis proceeds further at the
upper position than at the lower one. (B) Magnified image of the nascent
membranous cell partition seen at the lower arrow in another section (A).
Golgi-derived globular vesicles and flat tubular vesicles can be observed near
the membranous cell partition. Note that one edge of the cell partition is
connected to the plasma membrane. (C,D) The other cell division plane. Vesicle
accumulation and fusion during cytokinesis progress add one chloroplast.
