Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Actin cytoskeleton is the basis of chloroplast-orientation movements. These movements are activated by blue light in the leaves of terrestrial angiosperms. Red light has been shown to affect the spatial reorganization of F-actin in water plants, where chloroplast movements are closely connected with cytoplasmic streaming. The aim of the present study was to determine whether blue light,...
