“…In multinucleate cells, nuclear division may occur synchronously, asynchronously, or in a wave spreading from one part of the cell to another (for a general discussion, see Agrell, 1964 ;Grell, 1964 ;Erickson, 1964) . Cytokinesis may or may not be associated with nuclear division (Grell, 1964 ;Jbnsson, 1962 ;Kornmann, 1965Kornmann, , 1966Schussnig, 1931Schussnig, , 1954Lewis, 1909) . In the multinucleate green alga Acrosiphonia, an unusual pattern of nuclear and cell divison occurs (Jbnsson, 1962 ;Kornmann, 1965) : some of the nuclei of each multinucleate cell gather to form a band of nuclei located in the region where cytokinesis will later occur .…”

The processes of mitosis and cytokinesis in the multinucleate green alga Acrosiphonia have been examined in the light and electron microscopes . The course of events in division includes thickening of the chloroplast and migration of numerous nuclei and other cytoplasmic incusions to form a band in which mitosis occurs, while other nuclei in the same cell but not in the band do not divide . Centrioles and microtubules are associated with migrated and dividing nuclei but not with nonmigrated, nondividing nuclei . Cytokinesis is accomplished in the region of the band, by means of an annular furrow which is preceded by a hoop of microtubules . No other microtubules are associated with the furrow . Characteristics of nuclear and cell division in Acrosiphonia are compared with those of other multinucleate cells and with those of other green algae .
