Rudimentary cilia in muscle cells of annelids and echinoderms.

Gardiner SL , Rieger RM .


Abstract
Rudimentary cilia have been observed in muscle cells lining the tube feet of Ophioderma brevispinum (Ophiuroidea) and in muscle cells of the body wall and parapodial glands of Owena fusiformis (Polychaeta). A diplosomal basal body is associated with each cilium. Striated rootlets are absent. This is the first report on rudimentary cilia in muscle cells of an echinoderm and an annelid.
