Stochastic developmental variation in the ratio of allelic rDNAs among newly differentiated, heterozygous macronuclei of Tetrahymena thermophila.

Developmental genetics - 1 Jan 1992

Orias E, Bradshaw A D

Abstract excerpt

Ciliates possess nuclear dimorphism, i.e., they carry two structurally and functionally differentiated types of nuclei. The micronucleus and macronucleus serve as the germline and somatic nuclei, respectively, of the cell. The macronucleus differentiates from a mitotic sister of the micronucleus once per life cycle. Macronuclear differentiation is accompanied by a developmentally programmed set of DNA...
