Na2CO3胁迫对星星草叶肉细胞超微结构的影响

利用透射电镜技术对Na₂CO₃胁迫下星星草叶肉细胞超微结构进行了观察。结果表明：未胁迫的叶肉细胞排列疏松,各种细胞器结构完整,叶绿体含少量淀粉粒和脂质球。轻度盐胁迫（2g/L,4g/L Na₂CO₃）对叶肉细胞超微结构影响较小。中度盐胁迫（6g/L,8g/L Na₂CO₃）引起叶肉细胞超微结构的变化,叶绿体类囊体肿胀,基粒紊乱,不含淀粉粒,脂质球数量增加,叶绿体由原来的梭形或椭球形变成圆球状;部分线粒体嵴消失,出现晶体结构;中央大液泡破裂;核逐渐降解。高度盐胁迫（10g/L,12g/L Na₂CO₃）下,叶绿体片层结构消失,脂质球数量增加,体积变大,被大量的膜片层所包围,叶绿体内、外膜消失,叶肉细胞中看不到叶绿体的存在;膜片层包围线粒体;叶肉细胞中可见大量的泡状结构和膜片层,叶肉细胞死亡。上述结果表明,细胞器特别是叶绿体膜结构的破坏与盐胁迫叶肉细胞最终死亡密切相关     

NaCl对齿肋赤藓叶肉细胞超微结构的影响

齿肋赤藓(Syntrichia caninervis)是古尔班通古特沙漠苔藓结皮层中的优势物种,对荒漠生态系统的稳定性及功能多样性具有十分重要的意义。利用透射电镜技术对不同浓度Na Cl胁迫下齿肋赤藓叶肉细胞超微结构进行了观察。结果表明:齿肋赤藓叶肉细胞在未胁迫(0 mmol/L)处理下排列疏松,各种细胞结构完整,叶绿体基质排列均匀且叶绿体内含少量淀粉粒和脂质球。在轻度盐Na Cl胁迫(100 mmol/L)下,齿肋赤藓叶肉细胞结构依然保持完整,叶绿体基质均匀,叶肉细胞超微结构仅有较小变化。在中度盐Na Cl胁迫(200、300 mmol/L)下,齿肋赤藓叶肉细胞发生质壁分离,出现晶体结构,且中央大液泡发生破裂;叶绿体由梭形变成椭球形或圆球状,出现空泡化并伴随有轻微的解体;叶绿体类囊体肿胀,脂质球数量增加。在高度Na Cl胁迫(400、500 mmol/L)下,齿肋赤藓细胞的质壁分离加剧,叶肉细胞出现大量泡状结构和膜片层,叶肉细胞死亡;叶绿体片层结构消失,空泡化加重,脂质球数量增加且体积变大,叶绿体内外膜消失,叶绿体大部分解体,在叶肉细胞中几乎看不到叶绿体的存在。上述结果表明,叶绿体膜结构的损伤与盐胁迫下叶肉细胞死亡有密切关系。     

低温对桂花‘状元红’叶肉细胞超微结构的影响

为探讨北引桂花(Osmanthus fragrans)在低温胁迫下叶肉细胞超微结构的变化,揭示桂花于低温胁迫下细胞结构变化规律,该研究以3年生桂花品种‘状元红’(O.fragrans‘Zhuangyuan Hong’)为试材,分别于一系列低温下处理,经制样切片后,用透射电子显微镜观察叶肉细胞超微结构的变化。结果表明:常温(20~25°C)处理时,各细胞器超微结构正常;5°C低温处理时,叶绿体有轻微膨大现象,线粒体结构正常;0°C处理时叶绿体内嗜锇体增多,叶绿体肿胀加剧,线粒体数量增加,淀粉粒出现亮暗相间的轮纹;–10°C处理时,细胞器降解。在同一低温胁迫下不同细胞的叶绿体敏感程度不同,这为遭受低温后植株的恢复生长提供了细胞学基础。叶肉细胞中叶绿体、线粒体、细胞核的稳定性可作为桂花对低温响应的重要参考指标。

以宁夏枸杞为材料,采用超薄切片技术制备样品,应用光学显微镜和透射电镜分析了不同浓度NaCl胁迫条件下宁夏枸杞叶和幼根显微及超微结构的变化。结果表明：随着NaCl胁迫的加重,(1)叶片上表皮细胞增厚,栅栏组织细胞出现缩短现象,排列疏松且紊乱;幼根的初生结构无明显变化。(2)叶片栅栏组织中叶绿体不再紧靠在细胞膜上,叶绿体双层膜破坏,基粒片层松散排列,杂乱无章,出现膨胀和空泡现象,淀粉粒和嗜锇颗粒增多,叶肉细胞中线粒体发生轻微变化;幼根中皮层薄壁细胞线粒体形状发生改变,结构破坏,内膜和外膜模糊甚至破裂,大多数嵴模糊,出现空泡现象;细胞核解体,基质外溢。研究表明, 不同浓度的NaCl胁迫对宁夏枸杞叶片和幼根细胞的显微及超微结构影响不同,NaCl浓度大于200 mmol/L时,宁夏枸杞叶片和幼根细胞的显微及超微结构发生了明显变化,且叶肉细胞中线粒体的变化没有叶绿体的变化显著,推测叶肉细胞中线粒体的耐盐性比叶绿体强。     

盐胁迫下芦苇叶肉细胞超微结构的研究

对青藏高原柴达木盆地柯柯盐湖边盐碱地上生长的芦苇叶肉细胞的超微结构进行了研究,并以西宁地区非盐碱地上生长的芦苇作对照。结果表明：西宁地区的芦苇叶肉细胞的叶绿体呈椭圆形,其膜系统完整,基粒片层和基质片层发育良好。在盐碱地上生长的芦苇叶肉细胞的叶绿体呈圆形,叶绿体内出现较大的淀粉粒,并发现有线粒体嵌入叶绿体的现象。叶绿体的类囊体膨大,线粒体的嵴也有膨大的现象。在盐湖水中生长的芦苇叶肉细胞,叶绿体的类囊体排列紊乱、扭曲、松散。类囊体膜局部被破坏,部分类囊体膜解体,空泡化,甚至消失,一些溶解了的类囊体流进细胞质中。综上所述,芦苇叶肉细胞超微结构的变化是该植物适应柯柯盐湖地区盐渍、低温、低气压、强辐射等环境因子的结果。     

水分胁迫下小麦叶肉细胞超微结构变化与抗旱性的关系

本文用电子显微镜观察研究了抗旱性不同的6个小麦品种在不同程度水分胁迫下叶肉细胞超微结构的变化。结果表明:轻度水分胁迫(-0.5MPa)对参试的6个小麦品种叶肉细胞超微结构几乎没有影响。中度(-1.0MPa)和严重(-1.5MPa)水分胁迫下的叶肉细胞超微结构发生了程度不同的变化,且这种变化与品种抗旱性相一致。抗旱性愈弱的品种,对水分胁迫反应愈敏感。但表现在叶肉细胞结构上的变化过程基本一致。胁迫导致叶肉细胞质壁分离,液泡膜破裂。叶绿体变成球形挤入细胞中央,类囊体肿胀。线粒体基质变稀,脊减少。最终叶绿体、线粒体解体。其它细胞器消失,细胞中出现大量的小泡。     

Hg2+对海马齿叶肉细胞超微结构的影响

以红树林植物海马齿为材料,将生长一致的海马齿水培苗放到含有不同浓度Hg2+的营养液中进行Hg2+胁迫,用透射电镜观察海马齿叶肉细胞超微结构对不同浓度Hg2+胁迫的响应,以明确重金属汞对海马齿叶肉细胞超微结构的影响,探讨海马齿耐汞机制。结果表明:重金属汞能造成海马齿叶肉细胞不同程度的伤害,主要表现为对叶肉细胞中的叶绿体、线粒体、细胞核以及膜系统的伤害。随着Hg2+浓度不断升高,其叶绿体数目不断减少,形状由船型变成长形以及出现一些巨型叶绿体,类囊体系统受到伤害、基粒片层变得模糊不清。线粒体数目由于Hg2+浓度的不同而不同,形状由棒状变成圆形及椭圆形,线粒体双层膜结构与嵴变得模糊不清。细胞核也受到不同程度的伤害,核仁由一个变成多个,最后消失;同时细胞膜也受到伤害,主要表现为,不断的向胞内形成膜突起再形成空泡。最后在高浓度Hg2+胁迫下,随着叶肉细胞内细胞器的不断减少,最终造成细胞解体死亡。     

环境胁迫对库拉索芦荟叶片超微结构影响研究

对1年生库拉索芦荟分别用盐(1.8%的NaCl)、低温(10℃)、干旱[25%(w/v)的聚乙二醇-6000]3种胁迫条件处理7d后,对其叶肉细胞超微结构进行观察.结果发现:3种胁迫处理均可使库拉索芦荟细胞膜系统、叶绿体、线粒体、细胞核等结构受到不同程度的破坏,叶绿体周围出现许多小泡,导致细胞内膜系统紊乱,细胞器结构稳定性降低;盐胁迫下高尔基体在细胞质中解体;盐和低温胁迫下均可见线粒体膜与叶绿体膜发生融合、线粒体嵌在叶绿体当中的现象.另外,本研究发现,盐胁迫、低温胁迫比干旱胁迫对库拉索芦荟细胞膜的损伤更严重,而水分胁迫对其的伤害程度较小,表明库拉索芦荟的抗旱性较其抗盐性更强.     

CO2和O3浓度倍增及其交互作用对大豆叶绿体超微结构的影响

应用透射电镜观察了模拟大气CO2和O3浓度倍增及其交互作用(开顶箱法)对大豆叶肉细胞叶绿体超微结构的影响。结果表明,CO2浓度倍增促进了大豆叶绿体的发育,内含淀粉粒积累明显增多、体积增大;叶绿体被膜保持完好;叶绿体基粒片层排列整齐,而O3浓度倍增抑制了叶绿体内淀粉粒的累积,并导致叶绿体被膜破碎,片层解体,严重地破坏了叶绿体的结构和功能CO2和O3浓度倍增的交互作用对叶绿体超微结构有不同程度的破坏,但二者浓度呈梯度增加对叶绿体的损害作用要大于二者浓度持续倍增对叶绿体的影响,进一步表明CO2正效应对O3负效应的补偿作用。

Effects of Temperature Acclimation Pretreatment on the Ultrastructure of Mesophyll Cells in Young Grape Plants （Vitis vinifera L. cv. Jingxiu） Under Cross-Temperature Stresses

Leaves from annual young grape plants （Vitis vinifera L. cv. Jingxiu） were used as experimental materials. The ultrastructural characteristics of mesophyll cells in chilling-treated plants after heat acclimation （HA） and in heat-treated plants after cold acclimation （CA） were observed and compared using transmission electron microscopy. The results showed that slight injury appeared in the ultrastructure of mesophyll cells after either HA （38℃ for 10 h） or CA （8℃ for 2.5 d）, but the tolerance to subsequent extreme temperature stress was remarkably improved by HA or CA pretreatment. The increases in membrane permeability and malondialdehyde concentration under chilling （0℃） or heat （45℃） stress were markedly inhibited by HA or CA pretreatment. The mesophyll cells of plants not pretreated with HA were markedly damaged following chilling stress. The chloroplasts appeared irregular in shape, the arrangement of the stroma lamellae was disordered, and no starch granules were present. The cristae of the mitochondria were disrupted and became empty. The nucleus became irregular in shape and the nuclear membrane was digested. In contrast, the mesophyll cells of HA-pretreated plants maintained an intact ultrastructure under chilling stress. The mesophyll cells of control plants were also severely damaged under heat stress. The chloroplast became round in shape, the stroma lamellae became swollen, and the contents of vacuoles formed clumps. In the case of mitochondria of control plants subjected to heat stress, the outer envelope was digested and the cristae were disrupted and became many small vesicles. Compared with cellular organelles in control plants, those in CA plant cells always maintained an integrated state during whole heat stress, except for the chloroplasts, which became round in shape after 10 h heat stress. From these data, we suggest that the stability of mesophyll cells under chilling stress can be increased by HA pretreatment. Similarly, CA pretreatment can protect chloroplasts, mitochondria, and the nucleus against subsequent heat stress; thus, the thermoresistance of grape seedlings was improved. The results obtained in the present study are the first, to our knowledge, to offered cytological evidence of cross-adaptation to temperature stresses in grape plants.     

Structure and distribution of chloroplasts and other organelles in leaves with various rates of photosynthesis

The ultrastructure and distribution of chloroplasts, mitochondria, peroxisomes, and other cellular constituents have been examined in cross sections of leaves from plants with either high or low photosynthetic capacity. Photosynthetic capacity of a given plant cannot be correlated with the presence or absence of grana in bundle sheath cell chloroplasts, the presence or absence of starch grains in bundle sheath or mesophyll cell chloroplasts, the chloroplast size in bundle sheath or mesophyll cells, or the location of chloroplasts within bundle sheath cells. We conclude that the number and concentration of chloroplasts, mitochondria, and peroxisomes in bundle sheath cells is the most reliable anatomical criterion presently available for determining the photosynthetic capacity of a given plant.     

Chilling-induced ultrastructural changes to mesophyll cells of Arabidopsis grown under short days are almost completely reversible by plant re-warming

Exposure of plants to chilling (low temperatures above freezing) limits growth and development in all environments outside the lowest latitudes. Cell ultrastructure and morphometric studies may allow associations to be made between chilling-induced changes at the ultrastructural level, molecular events and their physiological consequences. We examined changes in the shape, size and membrane organization of the organelles of mesophyll cells in Arabidopsis thaliana (Col 0), a cold-resistant species, after subjecting 6-week-old plants grown at normal growth temperatures to chilling (2.5–4°C; 14-h dark/10-h light cycle) for 6, 24 and 72 h and after a re-warming period of 50 h. No ultrastructural differences were seen in the first 6 h of chilling but after 24 h we observed swollen and rounded chloroplasts with larger starch grains and dilated thylakoids compared to control plants. By 72 h, chilling had resulted in a large accumulation of starch in chloroplasts, an apparent crowding of the cytosol and a lower abundance of peripheral reticulum than in the controls. The average area per chloroplast in cell sections increased after 72-h chilling while the number of chloroplasts remained the same. Ring-shaped and other morphologically aberrant mitochondria were present in significantly higher abundance in plants given 72 h chilling than in the controls. Plant re-warming for 50 h reduced chloroplast size to those of the controls and returned mitochondria to standard morphology, but peripheral reticulum remained less abundant than in plants never given a cold treatment. The near full return to normal ultrastructure upon plant re-warming indicates that the morphological changes may be part of acclimation to cold.     

Effects of drought and waterlogging on ultrastructure of Scots pine and Norway spruce needles

Effects of water stress on needle ultrastructure of 2-year-old Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) and 5-year-old Norway spruce [Picea abies (L.) Karst.] seedlings were studied in greenhouse experiments. Drought stress was induced by leaving seedlings without watering, and waterlogging stress was produced by submerging the seedling containers in water. Needle samples for ultrastructural analyses were collected several times during the experiments, and samples for nutrient analyses at the end of the experiments. In drought stress, plasmolysis of mesophyll and transfusion parenchyma tissues, aggregation of chloroplast stroma and its separation from thylakoids and decreased size and abundance of starch grains in needles of both species were observed. The concentration of lipid bodies around the chloroplasts were detected in pine needles. Calcium and water concentrations in spruce needles were lower by the end of the experiments compared to controls. In waterlogging treatment, swelling of phloem cells in pine needles and large starch grains, slight swelling of thylakoids and increased translucency of plastoglobuli in chloroplasts of both species studied were observed. The phosphorus concentration in pine needles was higher while phosphorus, calcium and magnesium concentrations in spruce needles were lower in the waterlogging treatments compared to controls. Typical symptoms induced by drought stress, e. g. aggregation of chloroplast stroma and its separation from thylakoids, were detected, but, in waterlogging stress, ultrastructural symptoms appeared to be related to the developing nutrient imbalance of needles.     

锌胁迫对不知火杂柑和椪柑叶片光合特性及超微结构的影响

NaCl胁迫对5个引自北美的树种叶肉细胞超微结构的影响

为明确美国白蜡(Fraxinus americana L.)、茶条槭(Aceginnala Maxim.)、红桤木(Alnus rubra Bong.)、水紫树(Nyssa aquatica L.)和美国皂荚(Gleditsia triacanthos L.)5个引自北美的树种的耐盐性,采用水培方法、利用透射电镜技术对0(对照)、4和8 g·L-1 NaCl胁迫处理后5个树种1年生苗叶肉细胞超微结构的变化进行了观察和比较.观察结果表明:正常条件(0g·L-1NaCl)下,5个树种叶肉细胞在叶绿体形态、嗜锇颗粒数量等方面略有差异,但均未发生质壁分离现象.经NaCl胁迫处理后,5个树种叶肉细胞中的叶绿体和细胞核受到不同程度的损伤,表现为叶绿体膜消失,类囊体片层结构肿胀,叶绿体降解,嗜锇颗粒增大或增多,细胞核的核膜消失、核染色质凝聚;且随NaCl质量浓度的提高,损伤程度均逐渐加剧.4和8g·L-1NaC1胁迫条件下,美国皂荚、茶条槭和水紫树的叶肉细胞发生质壁分离现象,而红桤木、美国白蜡和水紫树的叶肉细胞内出现环状片层.根据观察结果,推测红桤木和美国白蜡对NaCl胁迫的耐性较强,美国皂荚和茶条槭也有一定的耐性,而水紫树的耐性最弱.
