Explanations for protoplasmic streaming began with appeals to contraction in the eighteenth century and ended with appeals to contraction in the twentieth. During the intervening years, biologists proposed a diverse a...

The extruded protoplasm from the coenocytic green alga,Bryopsis hypnoides Lamouroux,was able to reform a cell wall and develop further into a mature alga in seawater.In this paper,the influence of albumen on the abili...

We investigated the role of the "sieve tube-companion cell complex" lining the tube periphery, particularly the microfilament and microtubule, in assisting the pushing of phloem sap flow. We made a simple phloem tra...
Since nuclear extrusion was rediscovered in young Allium scale by S.H.WU in the years of 1950's systematic investigations on this phenomenon were carried out with various kinds of microscopic techniques and p...
