Abstract
Cinematographic analysis of encysting primary zoospores of Saprolegnia terrestris showed asynchronous flagellar retraction. The data are most compatible with a retraction model involving mainly asynchronous microtubule depolymerization with "wrap-around" of the final fragment of each flagellum.Keywords
