N2 - Chromatin morphology and cytokinesis are described in the cyanobacterium Pleurocapsa sp. CALU 1126 capable of multiple fission (multiple reproduction of the mother cell, the macrocyte, with the formation of unique reproductive cells, the baeocytes by means of differential interference contrast (DIC) and fluorescence microscopy). Two kinds of chromatin behavior in the cell cycle are revealed, including (1) the formation of numerous chromatin areas prior to their compartmentalization by multiple fission and (2) chromatin condensation in the phase of binary fission and chromatin decondensation in growth period. The cytokinetic essence of multiple fission is shown to consist of successive binary fissions of the macrocyte, while in between, the mother cells (prebaeocytes) do not grow.
