It is very interesting to
find this reproductive phase in Spirogyra. The sexual reproduction takes place by conjugation in Spirogyra. Zygospore is the
final product of conjugation. In this video you can see the lateral
conjugation. Between two conjugating cells, conjugation tube is formed. After
conjugation tube formation, the protoplasmic mass of the male cell rounded to
form male gamete and protoplasmic mass of female cell rounded to form female
gamete. The male is active donor. It moves towards the female through
conjugation tube. Fusion product of male and female cell is the zygospore. It
is diploid, thick walled structure.
