Reproduction in Bacillariophyta (With Diagram)

In this article we will discuss about the reproduction in basillariophyta. This will also help you to draw the structure and diagram of reproduction in bacillariophyta. Diatom cells multiply usually by a peculiar method of cell division. An increase in the volume of the frustule results in a slight separation of the valves which is followed by mitotic division of [...]
