A1 Speksnijder, J.E. YR 1991 UL http://dev.biologists.org/content/112/3/833.abstract AB We have studied the development of the ciliated, Patella vulgata trochophore larvae. This organ, the different clones of trochoblasts. In each of these filamentous (F-) actin is formed at the time that which we visualized with TRITC-phalloidin, is cilia that crosses each trochoblast. Isolated quartets of animal micromeres (from which the form rows of cilia and F-actin bands at the proper embryos, the trochoblasts shift their position form a ring of differentiated prototroch cells with a encircling the entire larva. At the dorsal side, a and thus a double band of F-actin is present. In double F-actin band are found in trochophores in which dorsoventral axis is inhibited experimentally. shows that the F-actin band extends from the apical cytoplasm of the prototroch cells. At the rootlet connected to the basal body of each cilium can the cytoplasm toward the nucleus, and a band of actin- interconnect neighboring basal apparatus. Treatment of cytochalasin B disrupts the organization of the F- TRITC-phalloidin, affects the angle of the effective reduces their swimming capacity. This suggests that for the normal locomotory behavior of the Patella
