- Method / resource Paraformaldehyde best preserved fibrillar centres.
- Observation Quiescent NAC formed two short internal strands or peripheral knobs about 0.7 μm thick.
- Observation NAC comprised a clear zone and an opaque heterochromatic zone.
- Observation Germinating NAC remained connected to the nuclear envelope.
- Observation At 10–12 hours, nucleolar vacuole networks formed around NAC.
- Observation Chromatin fibres about 12 nm thick emerged from unfolding NAC.
- Observation At 24 hours NAC appeared as two dichotomous strands.
- Observation At 72 hours NAC stretching and branching were more pronounced.
