Such variability and the presence of flagella and microtubules in their preparations make their data not comparable with ours.
The slide was examined under 1000r magnification, and the number of flagella counted for each exflagellating gametocyte.
Lateral flagella were not clearly visible, but 2-5 polar flagella (2-3 times the length of the cell) were observed.
It is known that the flagella perform a propeller-like movement with a specific handedness resulting from the gear-like structure of their molecular motors.
Zoospores narrowed down toward the forward end and had two flagella.
Specific targeting of proteins to the flagella of trichomonads thus may be modulated by an alternative mechanism.
Monoclonal antibodies specific for an acetylated form of a-tubulin recognise the antigen in cilia and flagella from a variety of organisms.
Metacyclic promastigotes were readily distinguished in fresh preparations by their small cell bodies, long flagella and vigorous motility.
