ABSTRACT |
When forming daughter cells in the two oceanic non-motile dinoflagellates P. lunula (Schutt) Schutt and P. noctiluca Murray, the complex cytoskeleton network of microtubules in the mother cyst cell reforms around each new daughter cell. Our results suggest that the cortical cytoskeleton network of Pyrocystis does not disappear, as known for other dinoflagellates, but rather passes from the surrounding mother cell wall area to the daughter cell wall area
