Root hair initiation and growth 1. No remarkable changes in the organisation of the actin cytoskeleton were observed by using either talin- or plastin-GFP 2. MTs are not involved in bulge formation (cell wall pH change) 3. Polar growth coincides with the presence of a highly dynamic MT network between the nucleus and the root hair tip 4. MTs are required for fast polar growth 5. Root hair growth is cytoskeleton-driven protrusive cell growth
Root hair swelling and branching 1. No remarkable changes in the organisation of the actin cytoskeleton were observed by using either talin- or plastin-GFP 2. MTs are not involved in root hair swelling (cell wall pH change?) 3. Growth arrest and swelling coincide with the absence of the subapical MT network 4. Reinitiation of polar growth requires the reformation of a highly dynamic subapical MT network 5. Root hair swelling comparable to bulge formation and branching comparable to polar growth
