Abstract
    Chromosome counts can be used to verify stages of dinoflagellate life cycles. A simple method involving cell lysis, heat, desiccation, and staining has been effective in studying Ptychodiscus brevis chromosomes. Two vegetative count ranges were determined with this technique: (1) a haploid number of 121 3 for field and recent culture specimens; and (2) a diploid number of 240 6 for a 25-yr old culture. The latter probably is a result of autodiploidy during extended culture conditions. Polyploidy may be occurring in many long-established algal cultures.
