Light micrographs of NPCD, EPCD and LPCD stage cells illustrating variation in transvacuolar strand activity. A) NPCD stage cells depicting several transvacuolar strands (black arrow), in which mitochondria and chloroplasts appeared to be associated (see additional file 6) B) EPCD stage cells showing an increase in the number of transvacuolar strands (black arrow) and continued associations with mitochondria and chloroplasts. Depending on the focal plane of the cell, transvacuolar strands appear to be connected with the cell periphery and with the nucleus (see additional file 7). C) LPCD stage cells illustrating a decrease in the number of transvacuolar strands with no organelle affiliations (see additional file 8).
