Figure 6.

Morphology and Actin Cytoskeleton of Specialized Cell Types.

(B), (D), (F), (H), (J), (L), and (N) show cell morphology as observed using scanning electron microscopy; (A), (C), (E), (G), (I), (K), and (M) show F-actin organization as visualized using stable expression of GFP-mTn. Projections of serial confocal optical sections are shown. All images depict selected cells with representative phenotypes. Wild-type trichomes display a variable degree of branching (Mathur and Chua, 2000), which was not affected significantly by AtADF1 overexpression (data not shown).
