SUMMARY. The dynamics of DNA content in the Feulgen-stained nuclei of microspores and pollen grains of Lilium candidum and Coriandrum sativum has been cytophotometrically studied. Both species with two- and three-celled male gametophyte has DNA accumulation in generative and vegetative cells. In L. candidum DNA replication in a vegetative cell occurs later than in a generative cell (at last stages of microgametogenesis), whereas in C. sativum DNA synthesis begins nearly simultaneously in both cells of young pollen grain.
