Abstract
Cytological and physiological aspects of apical growth in algae are reviewe d. Data on morphology and ultrastructural organization of siphonous thalli are presented. Special attention is paid to the organization of microtubule s and microfilaments and the role of the cytoskeleton in morphogenesis. A c omparative study of apical growth in algae, fungi, and higher plants is pre sented.
