La reproduction sexuée se fait par cystogamie : les progamétocystes grandissent et se divisent chacun en deux segments, le suspenseur et la gamétocyste plurinucléée. Les gamétocystes fusionnent pour former un coenozygote contenant plusieurs noyaux diploïdes. La paroi du coenozygote s'épaissie pour former une structure résistante aux conditions défavorables du milieu extérieur. 2, record 17, French, - coenozygote

Reprenant le principe des expériences de Lederberg et Tatum sur la conjugaison (1946), différents auteurs notent que certains croisements entre souches d'Escherichia coli sont féconds, c'est-à-dire qu'ils donnent naissance à des recombinants, alors que d'autres croisements sont stériles. Ceci suggère immédiatement que, contrairement aux hypothèses de Lederberg et Tatum, qui croient à l'égalité sexuelle des conjugants bactériens, les bactéries font montre de quelque dimorphisme sexuel. L'obtention de recombinants requerrait donc le croisement de bactéries de types sexuels complémentaires. Hayes, dans une série d'études qui s'étalent entre 1948 et 1953, démontre qu'il en est bien ainsi. 1, record 19, French, - type%20sexuel
