Abstract

Further proof is provided for the view that the chromosomes in the macronucleus ofBlepharisma and Spirostomum are in the nature of organized Feulgen positive filaments disposed within its membrane. Under appropriate conditions, the filaments unwind themselves from the macronucleus to give rise to greatly elongate structures.
