Rhizoid


Definition:

  • (n.) A rootlike appendage.

  • (16) The rumen flagellate Sphaeromonas communis showed a significant increase in population density 1 to 2 h after the host sheep commenced feeding, followed by a reduction in numbers to the pre-feeding level after a further 2 to 3 h. The life-history of the organism was shown to consist of a motile flagellate which germinated to produce a vegetative stage comprising a limited rhizoidal system on which up to three reproductive bodies were borne together with (in vitro) other spherical bodies of unknown function; in vivo, the reproductive bodies were stimulated to liberate flagellates by a component of the diet of the host.
  • (17) Vn does not localize to the rhizoid tip under culture conditions that prevent two-celled embryos from attaching.
  • (18) In both the rhizoids and the sporangia 'crystal bodies' and hydrogenosomes are present.
  • (19) If sulfate is added back to cultures of zygotes grown without sulfate, fucoidin is detected at the rhizoid tip by RCA(I)-FITC several hours later.
  • (20) A sulphated F2 alone is not sufficient for its localization since in the presence of cytochalasin, vesicles containing F2 are not transported to the rhizoid.
