Abstract: 
Organelle transport in the cortical cytoplasm of interphase Spirogyra crassa cells was investigated in vivo by real-time video-enhanced DIC microscopy. Four classes of particles with different temporal pattern of movement shared the same tracks, which by staining with rhodamine phalloidine and reversible inhibition of organelle transport by cytochalasin D were identified as bundles of actin filaments. The most intriguing type of movement was revealed by a tubular organelle resembling elements of the endoplasmic reticulum. Elements of this organelle showed scarcely any net translocation during interphase, so that movement appeared rather agitational. In contrast to an immobile, polygonal network of endoplasmic reticulum underneath the plasmalemma, the tubular organelle did not stain in vivo by 3,3''-dihexyloxacarbocyanine iodide (DiOC).
