5 I ciliates cell structure:. macronucleous. micronucleous 8. cilium wikipedia Franciscosp Unlike most other eukaryotes, ciliates have two different sorts of nuclei: a small, diploid micronucleus (reproduction), and a large, polyploid macronucleus (general cell regulation). The latter is generated from the micronucleus by amplification of the genome and heavy editing.
