Abstract
Recently, actin filaments in mature kidney-shaped guard cells of many plants have been shown using diverse methodologies. Interestingly, the arrangements of cortical actin filaments showed close similarities. Moreover, there has been evidence suggesting their roles in signal transduction. We review these recent data and draw a model for the function of cortical actin filaments in guard cells in daily stomatal movements.
