The male gamete of the parasitic protozoan Diplauxis hatti has a flagellum consisting of three doublet microtubules. This flagellum exhibits a helicoidal waveform in which bends propagate toward the tip with a frequency of about 1.5 hertz. It is the simplest motile eukaryotic flagellum yet described.
寄生原生动物哈氏双滴虫的雄配子具有一根由三根双联体微管组成的鞭毛。这根鞭毛呈现出一种螺旋波形,弯曲以约1.5赫兹的频率向鞭毛尖端传播。它是迄今所描述的最简单的能运动的真核生物鞭毛。
