Temporal relationships of host cell and algal mitosis in the green hydra symbiosis.
In fed hydra or excised regenerating peduncles there are increases in the mitotic indices of both digestive cells and the symbiotic algae that reside within them. Conversely, algal and digestive cell mitotic indices decrease in starved hydra. The temporal relationships of algal and host cell division differ in fed hydra and regenerating peduncles. After feeding, algal and digestive cell mitotic...
متن کاملHydra
What is Hydra? Hydra is a member of the animal phylum Cnidaria. This phylum includes corals, sea anemones and jellyfish. While most cnidarians are marine, Hydra is unusual in that it lives exclusively in fresh water. Hydra was first described by Antoni van Leeuwenhoek (1632– 1723) in a letter he sent to the Royal Society on Christmas day, 1702. The letter included a red chalk drawing of Hydra o...
متن کاملGrowth of endosymbiotic algae in the green hydra, Hydra viridissima
Stable endosymbiosis depends upon balanced growth of the symbionts. In green hydra, coincident patterns of host and algal mitotic index suggest that coordinated reproduction provides for balanced growth. However, when hydra shrink during food shortage, the population of endosymbiotic algae in a green hydra must likewise decline in size. Thus far, no mechanism of reducing the size of the endosym...
متن کاملTerminal differentiation of ectodermal epithelial stem cells of Hydra can occur in G2 without requiring mitosis or S phase
Using bromodeoxyuridine incorporation to label cells in S phase we found that ectodermal epithelial cells of Hydra can start and complete their terminal differentiation in the G2 phase of the cell cycle. Most of the cells traversed their last S phase before the signal for differentiation, namely excision of head or foot, was given. The S phase inhibitor aphidicolin accordingly did not inhibit h...
متن کاملAxial patterning in hydra.
Morphogen gradients play an important role in pattern formation during early stages of embryonic development in many bilaterians. In an adult hydra, axial patterning processes are constantly active because of the tissue dynamics in the adult. These processes include an organizer region in the head, which continuously produces and transmits two signals that are distributed in gradients down the ...
