Fig. 5 in Cortical Localization of α- and γ-Tubulin and the Assembly of Cortical Microtubule Cytoskeleton in Hypotrichous Ciliate Euplotes eurystomus

Fig. 5. (A–D) Projections of the optical sections passing through the ventral surface of E. eurystomus cells in mitotic phase decorated with FLUTAX. Scale: 20 μm. (A) The AZM primordium appeared at the bottom-left of old AZM in the early stage of morphogenesis. (AZMP: adoral zone of membranelles primordium; UMP: undulating membrane primordium; arrow shows the UMP originated from the right side of AZMP). (B) The pattern of FVTC primordia was 3-3-3-2-2 from left to right, shown in a box (FVTCP: frontal–ventral–transverse cirri primordium; arrows show the blastema of ALM and PLM originating from the base of FVTCPs). (C) The AZM and UM of proter inherited the olds (white arrow), and those of opisthe were generated from the AZMP (black arrows show the primordium of the left marginal cirri). (D) Some old ciliary organelles still existed until the separation of the proter and opisthe (white arrows show the neonatal ALM and PLM; black arrows show the residual ALM; some old cirri are shown in the circle).
