Abstract excerpt
The influence of the mycorrhizal fungus Gigaspora margarita on cytoskeleton organisation in epidermal cells of Lotus japonicus roots was compared between plants of the wild type Gifu and the mutant Ljsym4-2, in which the fungus is confined to the epidermal cells. Immunofluorescence labelling of plant microtubules and microfilaments showed only limited alterations in the peripheral cytoskeleton of epidermal cells...
