The Regeneration of the Siphons of Ciona Intestinalis L.

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  11 May 2009

Department of Biology, Chelsea Polytechnic

Extract

Regeneration of the siphons of normal specimens Ciona intestinalis has been found to be completed, in every particular other than that of length, in 4 days.

Removal of the neuroglandular complex retards the regeneration rate.

With the exception of the epidermis and of the basic tunic, the new structures differentiate from haemoblasts.

A tentative synthesis has been made of the information available upon asexual reproduction and regeneration in the Ascidiaceae.
