Plant responses to intrinsic and extrinsic stimuli can require cytoplasmic rearrangements coordinated by actin microfilaments and microtubules.

Quoted textsource-backed
In several examples, these responses necessitate rearrangements of the cytoplasm that are coordinated by a network of actin microfilaments and microtubules, dynamic polymers collectively known as the cytoskeleton.

The review focuses on five plant cellular responses in which the actin cytoskeleton redistributes following extracellular stimulation: pollen tube tip growth and self-incompatibility, root hair responses to bacterial nodulation factors, light-mediated plastid positioning, nonhost resistance to fungal attack, and guard cell shape and turgor changes.
