Pāṇini leaves out words that carry over from earlier sūtras. Expand to see the rule as a reader actually understands it.

Commentary

The affix म comes in the sense of मतुप् after 1. द्यु and 2. द्रु ।
Thus द्युमः and द्रुमः ॥ These are primitive words, and therefore do not take मतुप् in the alternative.
