Figure 2

Zonate development of a G. vermiculophylla tetraspore. This type of division is rarely observed (1.6% ± 0.0045). The spore elongates before the first division, and the second furrow is always parallel to the first one. A, Freshly released tetraspores; B-H, Various developmental phases at 12 hour intervals; I-L, Various development phases at 24 hour intervals. Scale bar = 30 μm.
