1891 Jrnl. R.Microsc. Soc. 49In Hydatina, as in some Hymenoptera, there is established between arrhenotoky (parthenogenetic production of males) and fecundating *karyogamy, a relation so necessary that the second is impossible without the first.
1901 G. N. Calkins Protozoa iii. 97It is quite possible that many cases of so-called conjugation are only instances of plastogamy, or fusion of the cell-body, and are not followed by union of the nuclei (karyogamy), as in fertilization.

1912 Jrnl. Acad. Nat. Sci. Philadelphia XV. 525The most general results of increased temperature are:... (4) Formation of numerous *karyomeres from these scattered chromosomes; indeed by slight increase of temperature almost every chromosome may be caused to remain distinct from every other one, and to give rise to a separate chromosomal vesicle.
1934 L. W. Sharp Introd. Cytol. (ed. 3) x. 136Of considerable interest are those nuclei in which every chromosome of the telophase group forms an individual vesicle, or karyomere. In some cases the karyomeres may eventually fuse partially or completely, but in others they remain separate although in contact, forming what is virtually a group of small nuclei containing one chromosome each.
Ibid. 146The limits of the several chromosomes remain visible through this stage in certain nuclei; in extreme cases the nucleus is virtually a group of separate elementary nuclei, or karyomeres. [ sc. between mitoses]
