Cortical microtubules are mainly transverse (arrow) in the meristematic zone of than/+ (a) and pom2-4 (d). (b, c) Maximum projections of CLSM protodermal/epidermal cell sections in the transition (bracket in b) and elongation zone of than/+ root tips. Cortical microtubules are mainly transverse in the transition and early elongation zone but appear reoriented in longer cells of the elongation zone shootward (arrows in b and c). (e, f) Maximum projections of CLSM protodermal cell sections in the early (e) and advanced (f) elongation zone of pom2-4 root tips. Cortical microtubules are transverse in the shorter cells rootward (e) but appear reoriented in the longer cells shootward (f). Scale bars, 20 μm.
