Flagellar wave reversal in the kinetoplastid flagellate Crithidia oncopelti

Summary— Living Crithidia oncopelti cells swim through their environment by means of tip‐to‐base waves on their single flagellum. The cells are able to re‐orient themselves by using a short burst of asymmetrical base‐to‐tip waves. All points on a flagellum are capable of initiating waves. Placing a...
