Owing to the proembryogenic nature of carrot suspension cultures, a comprehensive study
of the activation events at initiation of the embryogenic development in somatic cells …

Actin microfilaments (MFs) are essential for the growth of the pollen tube. Although it is well
known that MFs, together with myosin, deliver the vesicles required for cell elongation, it is …

This review considers pollen tube growth with regard to current information on pollen tube
cytoplasm, wall structure and calcium ion interactions with pollen tubes. Pollen tubes have a …

The 5'region of the rice actin 1 gene (Act1) has been developed as an efficient regulator of
foreign gene expression in transgenic rice plants. To determine the pattern and level of rice …

We have used several methods to localise actin associated with plasmodesmata. In
meristematic plant material fixed in 0.1% glutaraldehyde/1% paraformaldehyde and …

Fifty years ago, an important paper appeared in Botanical Magazine Tokyo. Kamiya and
Kuroda proposed a sliding theory for the mechanism of cytoplasmic streaming. This …

ACT7 encodes one of the six distinct and ancient subclasses of actin protein in the complex
Arabidopsis actin gene family. We determined the sequence and structure of the …

The plant actin cytoskeleton is characterized by a high diversity in regard to gene families,
isoforms, and degree of polymerization. In addition to the most abundant F‐actin assemblies …

Formins have long been known to regulate microfilaments but have also recently been
shown to associate with microtubules. In this study, Arabidopsis thaliana FORMIN14 …
