In some cases {D. Bidwillii) usually only the second prothaUial ceU divides, but in others (D. laxifoUum and D. cupressinum) both prothaUial ceUs divide. The result is that at pollination the spore contains three or four free vegetative nuclei, in addition to the body ceU and the stalk and tube nuclei.
