Figure 5. — Self-organization of cytoplasmic streaming in a mathematical model of Chara [174]. Colour coding corresponds to the z-component of an order parameter associated with actin filaments at the periphery, and white lines represent indifferent zones separating up- and down-streaming regions. Superimposed are streamlines of the cytoplasmic flow induced by the filament field, where the flow is directed from the thin end to the thick end of the individual lines. Panels show progression from random disorder through local order to complete steady cyclosis.
