Figure 2From: Mechanical stress in Arabidopsis leaves orients microtubules in a 'continuous’ supracellular patternTime series of microtubule patterns. Image a shows the microtubule patterns in a leaf of 15 DAS at time point 0. Image b is taken at the same position but with a time interval of 3 hours and shows how microtubules were rearranged in parallel bundles within the cells. The zoomed sections show the altered microtubule patterns in more detail in the same cell at the initial time point (a) and after 3 hours (b). The supracellular patterns that appear after 3 hours are marked with a white line on image c. (scale bar = 50 μm). Image d presents the microtubule patters after 3 hours for a leaf of 22 DAS.Back to article page
