Plant cytokinesis is orchestrated by a specialized structure, the phragmoplast. The phragmoplast first occurred in representatives of Charophyte algae and then became the main division apparatus in land plants. Major cellular activities, including cytoskeletal dynamics, vesicle trafficking, membrane assembly, and cell wall biosynthesis, cooperate in the phragmoplast under the guidance of a complex signaling network. Furthermore, the phragmoplast combines plant-specific features with the conserved cytokinetic processes of animals, fungi, and protists. As such, the phragmoplast represents a useful system for understanding both plant cell dynamics and the evolution of cytokinesis. We recognize that future research and knowledge transfer into other fields would benefit from standardized terminology. Here, we propose such a lexicon of terminology for specific structures and processes associated with plant cytokinesis.

植物胞质分裂是由一种特殊的结构，即成膜质体协调的。芦苇最初出现在轮藻的代表中，后来成为陆生植物的主要分裂器官。主要的细胞活动，包括细胞骨架动力学、囊泡运输、膜组装和细胞壁生物合成，在复杂的信号网络的指导下在成膜体中协同工作。此外，phragmoplast 将植物特异性特征与动物、真菌和原生生物的保守细胞因子过程相结合。因此，phragmoplast 代表了一个有用的系统，用于了解植物细胞动力学和胞质分裂的进化。我们认识到，未来的研究和知识转移到其他领域将受益于标准化的术语。这里，
