Amitosis‐like nuclear division in erythrocytes of triploid rainbow trout<i>Oncorhynchus mykiss</i>

Abstract

This work shows that the atypical erythrocytes in triploid rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss were morphologically similar to those of toads. The nuclei of the cells can be bell-shaped, constricted or irregular. It is presumed that such nuclear division is probably amitosis.
