The formation of the zygote in cotton is accompanied by marked changes in the number and aggregation of the ribosomes. The zygote is formed approximately 14 hr after pollination but does not divide for some 56-60 hr. Electron microscope studies of the zygote during this period reveal a series of changes in the size and distribution of polysomes which may provide information on this important stage of plant development.
