Abstract

Previously reported studies of cell ultrastructure and molecular probe passage in immature staminal hairs were extended to kinetic studies. The rate of transport of carboxyfluorescein into the cytoplasm in individual cells was monitored with a video analyzer and transport coefficients were determined. Carboxyfluorescein was found to traverse 5 cells in less than 5 minutes. The values of transport coefficients differed between cells and this was taken to mean that some cells are more closely coupled than others.
