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 micro...

Ciliated protists are ideal material for studying the origin and evolution of sex,because of their nuclear dimorphism(containing both germline micronucleus and somatic macronucleus in the same cytoplasm),special sexua...
Ectotherms generally demonstrate nonlinear changes in performance (e.g., movement speed, indi- vidual growth, population growth) as a function of temperature that are characterized by thermal performance curves (TP...

There are six micronuclear divisions during conjugation of Paramecium caudatum: three prezygotic and three postzygotic divisions. Four haploid nuclei are formed during the first two meiotic prezygotic divisions. Usua...

Although empirically well understood in their clinical administration, volatile anesthetics are not yet well comprehended in their mechanism studies. A major conundrum emerging from these studies is that there is no v...

The green ciliate, Paramecium bursaria, has evolved a mutualistic relationship with endosymbiotic green algae (photobionts). Under culture conditions, photobionts are usually unified (to be single species) within each...
During conjugation of Paramecium caudatum, nuclear events occur in a scheduled program. Morphological studies on nuclear behavior during conjugation of P. caudatum have been performed since the end of the 19th century...
After the third prezygotic division during conjugation of Paramecium caudatum,migratory and stationary pronuclei are produced.The migratory pronuclei remain in the paroral region tightly against the conjugating bounda...
