SUMMARY Cytokinesis essentially similar to that of vascular plants occurs in Ulothrix , an unbranched filamentous green alga. Plasmodesmata, similar to those of vascular plants, but different from those of many other algae, are also present. Cell plate formation and plasmodesmata also occur in Stigeoclonium , a branched green alga.
