The effect of the low temperature (+4A degrees C) on the organization of actin filaments (microfilaments) of cells from different growth zones has been studied in the roots of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.). It was found that cold treatment inhibited the growth of the primary root and changed its morphology, causing a formation of large number of deformed (ectopic) root hairs in differentiation zone. The temporal relationship between the disorientation and the organization of actin filaments and the detected changes of growth and morphology of roots after cold treatment was shown. It has been found that actin filaments of root hairs, meristematic cells, cells of elongation zone, and epidermal cells of all root zones of A. thaliana are the most sensitive to the cold.
