Abstract
The reorganization of microtubules (MTs) from cytokinesis to interphase was examined in protonemal cells of the fern Adiantum capillus-veneris. During the reorganization, many MTs fanned out from the nuclear envelope towards the cell periphery. Newly formed cortical MTs were located only near the nucleus and were arranged randomly. The randomly arranged cortical MTs were then replaced by an interphase array of cortical MTs that were oriented predominantly parallel to the cell axis. At the boundary between the new and the old cell wall, clusters of MTs were observed after the formation of cortical MTs.Keywords
