F actin and microtubules are important components of pollen tube, which have very important function in cytoplasm streaming of pollen tube. The authors observed the distribution of F actin and microtubules in the pollen tube of Lilium davidii Duch. by immunofluorescence technique and confocol laser scanning microscopy, through which some new results were obtained. 1. Chemical fixation could preserve F actin well in pollen tube, so the relation between F actin and microtubules could be studied by the methods of chemical fixation and fluorescence labelling in pollen tube. 2. F actin bundles were absent near the pollen tube tip, while microtubules were abundant and web formed in the pollen tube tip. The authors found that the terminal of microtubules was closely associated with the plasma membrane in the pollen tube tip. 3. Only a few F actin bundles co exist with the microtubules in the pollen tube of Lilium davidii . The results provided new evidence for the function and relationship between F actin and microtubules in the pollen tube.
