The rhizoplast of Platymonas subcordiformis is a contractile organelle. Cyclic contraction and extension are induced by incubating the organism in solutions containing calcium and adenosine triphosphate. Rhizoplast contraction is functionally linked to flagellar activity.
Platymonas subcordiformis 的根冠是一个可收缩的细胞器。将生物体在含有钙和三磷酸腺苷的溶液中孵育会诱导其发生周期性的收缩和舒张。根冠的收缩与鞭毛的活动在功能上是相关联的。
