DYNAMICS OF THE HISPID FLAGELLUM OF OCHROMONAS DANICA : The Role of Mastigonemes



M. E. J. Holwill 1 and Patricia D. Peters 1

1 From the Department of Physics, Queen Elizabeth College, London, England.

Dr. Peters' present address is Cavendish Laboratory, Free School Lane, Cambridge, England.

High speed cinephotographic techniques were used to determine the pattern of fluid flow about the hispid flagellum of Ochromonas danica and to investigate the behavior of this flagellum in media of increased viscosity. The fluid currents are consistent with the hypothesis that the mastigonemes are passive, rigid, remain normal to the flagellar surface, and lie in the plane of flagellar undulation during motility.
