Abstract
Vegetative nuclear division in the Chalara state of Thielaviopsis paradoxa, Trichothecium roseum, and Cladobotryum variospermum was studied by standard staining techniques. In T. paradoxa the chromatinic material and nucleolus divide by elongation and constriction comparable to that observed in phycomycetes. The spindle, if any exists, must be intranuclear and not discernible by light microscopy. In T. roseum and C. variospermum successive stages of mitosis accompanied by thin spindles were observed. A deeply staining lateral granule or 'centriole equivalent' is seen at the perinuclear area during interphase. Metaphase and anaphase configurations peculiar to ascomycetous nuclei are observed in T. roseum and C. variospermum.
