| Research Abstract |
Coleocaete scutata is an alga of Charophytes whose body is consisted of only one cell layer. In order to establish an experimental system for the analysis of the relationships between individual cell shaping and the whole body shaping, we developed the culture system of C. scutata that enables us to trace the cell outline and plastid position three dimensionally for many weeks under a microscope. Using this system, the analysis of microtubules in this alga is in progress.
