Microtubular System

The eyespot of the marine dinoflagellate Glenodinium foliaceum is a flattened orange structure, more or less trapezoid in shape with an anterior hook-like projection. It is situated on the ventral side of the organism in the vicinity of the flagellar bases at the anterior end of the sulcus. In the electron microscope the eyespot is seen to contain two layers of osmiophilic granules 80-200 nm in diameter which usually show hexagonal close-packing. The eyespot is surrounded by a triple-membraned envelope and is not connected to any other organelle. Adjacent to the eyespot is a distinctive organelle termed the ‘lamellar body’. This consists of a stack of up to 50 flattened vesicles or disks, each 16 nm thick and about 750 nm wide, the whole being orientated in an antero-posterior direction. The lamellae are continuous, at the ends of the stack, with rough endoplasmic reticulum and are joined together by occasional bridges at their edges. The bases of the two flagella lie just ventral to the lamellar body and from them roots arise which pass by the eyespot and join the subthecal microtubular system. The eyespot of Glenodinium is unique both in structure and the presence of the associated lamellar body. It differs from eyespots which have been described from other algal groups and also from the more complex ocellus found in certain dinoflagellates belonging to the order Warnowiaceae. The method by which the eyespot functions is discussed and it is suggested that unidirectional stimuli could be perceived by shading of the lamellar body.

The Magnetic Field

Although the photosphere is a uniform region for scales greater than the granulation, the fact that the magnetic field strength falls off less sharply than the gas pressure leads to strong magnetic influence at greater heights in the solar atmosphere. This magnetic influence leads to non-uniformity and fine structure in the chromosphere and corona. The existence of such structure has been deduced mostly from measurements of photospheric phenomena; in particular, from measurements of photospheric velocity fields (Leighton, Noyes & Simon 1962) and of photospheric magnetic fields (Bumba & Howard 1965). The determining factor would thus appear to be in the photosphere; but visible effects only are produced in the chromosphere and corona. In recent years, high resolution filter photography has enabled us to recognize different regions of the chromosphere, where qualitatively different structure is associated with distinct magnetic field patterns. This progress has been possible because of better Lyot filters, better films and better observing sites; the spectroheliograph has always been limited for high resolution work by the finite slit width and the difficulty of accurate guiding during the long exposures.
