光学显微镜下观察的木莲属(Manglietia)5种植物的花粉形态相似。长赤道轴大于45μm,属于大的花粉。扫描电镜下观察,花粉外壁均为小穴状雕纹,但毛桃木莲(Manglietia moto)和厚叶木莲(M．pachyphylla)略为粗糙。透射电镜下观察,5种植物花粉外壁均可分为覆盖层、柱状层和基层。覆盖层不连续,有小穿孔。在远极面萌发沟区域,外壁逐渐减薄,最后覆盖层和柱状层消失,仅残留基层。柱状层内空间较密实,内部空隙小,多由颗粒构成,处于小柱发育的初级阶段。孢粉学资料证明木莲属是木兰科最原始的类群。     

水雍科植物的花粉形态研究

应用光学显微镜、扫描电镜和透射电镜对世界水雍科6种植物的花粉形态进行了观察。水雍科植物花粉为舟形或船形,具远极单沟萌发孔类型,外壁纹饰通常为浅网状至网状,稀为小刺状纹饰,外壁外层由覆盖层、柱状层和基层组成,覆盖层厚。水雍科植物花粉外壁纹饰表现了从小刺状向网状的过渡。该科花粉为远极单沟,覆盖层厚,具小刺等特征反映了其与水鳖科和泽泻目花蔺科的密切联系,而该科花粉外壁纹饰多为网状则与茨藻目植物接近。这一结果支持将水雍科从茨藻目中分出作为一个独立的目处理的观点。此外,水雍科植物的花粉大小、纹饰类型、网眼大小与深浅等方面的差异对种级分类有一定意义。

应用光学显微镜、扫描电镜和透射电镜对安徽大学校内水池中眼子菜科植物菹草的花粉形态进行了观察和研究.结果表明花粉粒球形至近球形,花粉大小为21.0-29.0 μm,平均为24.5 μm.无萌发孔.光学显微镜下,花粉外壁纹饰为网状,外壁厚约4.1μm,两层明显,外层较内层厚.在扫描电镜下花粉表面具粗网状纹饰,网脊窄.在透射电镜下,花粉外壁为三层组成,即覆盖层、柱状层和基层.外壁内层不明显.覆盖层不连续,为半覆盖层;柱状层小柱发达;基层较厚.同时研究了菹草花粉的地理分布及其与生态因子的关系.根据菹草植物赖以生存的生态因子,得出菹草花粉分布区的主要生态因子,包括地理位置、海拔高度、年降水量、年积温及生境,为利用地层中眼子菜科化石花粉重建古气候、古环境及气候变迁提供了现代孢粉学资料和依据.     

水鳖科9属15种植物花粉形态的研究

应用光学显微镜、扫描电镜和透射电镜对水鳖科Hydrocharitaceae 9属15种植物的花粉形态进行 了观察。水鳖科植物花粉为圆球形至近椭球形,无萌发孔或偶为单沟萌发孔,外壁纹饰通常为小刺状纹 饰,刺密集或稀疏,花粉表面具瘤状、疣状、颗粒状、皱波状突起或光滑。外壁由覆盖层、柱状层和基层组 成。覆盖层厚或较薄,柱状层小柱发育不明显,基层薄。水鳖科植物在花粉大小、纹饰类型、刺的长短、 密度、形态、萌发孔的有无以及花粉壁的结构等方面表现出了较为明显的差异,这些特征对探讨类群间 关系具有较重要意义。由于黑藻属Hydrilla和Stratiotes属花粉较为特殊,支持将它们各自作为一个独立 的族处理。水鳖科植物花粉外壁纹饰和结构特点表明该科与水雍科Aponogetonaceae、泽泻科Alismataceae 和花蔺科Butomaceae等近缘,而该科植物花粉大多无萌发孔等则反应了该科与茨藻目Najadales植物有密切联系。

Exine ontogeny in Borago officinalis pollen

The primexine matrix is finely granulo-fibrillar up to callose digestion; it becomes distinctly fibrillar at the free microspore stage. The columellae and the tectum are initiated at the middle tetrad stage, the foot layer and the endexine are initiated when the callose wall digestion begins. The columellae are initiated by the deposition of spiral elements around a clear central zone. This hollow aspect of columella disappears when thickening. The foot layer and the endexine are built by the expansion of plasmalemma derived components. The foot layer appears first at the poles, then at the interapertural levels and at last at the apertures while the endexine appears first at the mesoapertures, then it spreads laterally towards the interapertural levels and, at last, at the poles. The gemmae are formed at the free microspore stage over all the tectum. The thickening of the exine takes place essentially during the free microspore stage and continues during the vacuolate microspore one. Apertures are entirely formed before the complete digestion of the callose wall. The ectoapertures are determined by the lacking of the columellae; the sites of the pericolpal cavities and the mesoapertures result from the plasmalemma retraction even before the setting up of the foot layer and the endexine by which they will be delimited respectively afterwards. The endoapertures are determined by the lacking of compact endexine at their level, and merge into a continuous equatorial belt.     

Pollen wall development in Eucommia ulmoides (Eucommiaceae)

In Eucommia the foot layer plays a prominent part in microspore wall development. Bacules (>100 nm) are rods originating within the foot layer. Small bacules (diameter ca. 10 nm) form at the same time as the foot layer. The tectum is considered to be made up of these microbacular rods. Spinules ar continuous with the bacules. An endexine is differentiated during a middle to late microspore stage. Except for the pore the furrow includes tectum and foot layer on the endexine. Since the furrow consists of a region of reduced foot layer and the reduction is gradual near the polar ends of furrows, assessment of furrow length depends to some extent upon variations in exine infolding. The pore is well defined, but, because it is crossed by lamellations of the endexine and foot layer and often overlaid by tongues and bridges of foot layer plus tectum (including spinules) it is obscured from view using either light microscopy or scanning electron microscopy.

A unique pollen wall mutation in the family Compositae: ultrastructure and genetics

During a routine screening of pollen fertility in the n = 2 chromosome race of Haplopappus gracilis, a spineless pollen wall mutation was discovered that renders the otherwise functional pollen grains completely unrecognizable as Compositae pollen. Normal Haplopappus pollen is characterized by an outer layer, the ektexine, consisting of large spines supported by a roof (tectum), which in turn is supported by collumellae that are joined basally. A large cavity (cavea) stretches from aperture to aperture and separates columellae bases from the final ektexine unit, the foot layer. The spines, tectum, columellae, and columellae bases are filled with perforations (internal foramina), while the foot layer is without them. Immediately underlying the foot layer is a thickened, lamellate, disrupted, internal foramina-free second exine layer, the endexine. In contrast, the mutant pollen ektexine is a jumble of components with randomly dispersed spines as the only clearly definable unit. The endexine layer is similar to the endexine in normal pollen. The mutation apparently disrupts only the organization of ektexine units, and mutant pollen appears to be without the caveae and foot layer characteristic of normal pollen. In genetic tests, the mutant allele is recessive. There is a simple Mendelian pattern of inheritance of the mutant gene, and its phenotype is under sporophytic control.     

Studies on Pollen Morphology of Pulsatilla Mill.

Pollen grains of 18 species of Pulsatilla in Ranunculaceae distributed in Asia and Europe were examined by LM and SEM, and exine ultrastructure of tricolpate pollen grains of P. chinensis and of pantoporate pollen grains of P. campanella was examined by TEM. Pulsatilla pollen is divided into four major types based on the aperture character, i.e. tricolpate, di- and tricolpate, pantocolpate and pantoporate. The revolutionary trend of pollen types is as follows: tricolpate→pantocolpate→pantoporate. Surface spinulate and perforate. According to density and size of sptnulae and distribution of perforation, the pollen grains of the genus can be divided into two groups. Thin sections of P. chinensis and P. campanella show endexine thickened at colpi and ora. Ektexine consists of a foot layer, a collumellae layer and a continuous, perforate tectum. The columallae layer is thicker than foot layer and tectum. Pollen morphology of Pulsatilla is similar to that of Anemone, but different in the distribution of spinules and perforation. Pollen information supports Wang’s view about systematic arrangment of species of Pulsatilla in China.     

前胡族花粉外壁超微结构及其系统学意义

报道了前胡族(Peucedaneae Drude)当归亚族(Angelicinae Drude)、阿魏亚族(Ferulinae Drude)和环翅芹亚族(TordyliinaeDrude)等3亚族18属18种植物的花粉外壁表面和内部的超微结构.根据花粉外壁超微结构资料,论述了18种及其所在属的系统位置.对现时尚存疑的问题,诸如当归亚族中的山芹属(Ostericum Hoffm.)等7属(种),经分析认为统归于当归属(Angelica L.)不恰当;阿魏亚族中的球根阿魏(Schumannia turcomanica Kuntze)、伊犁芹(Talassiatransiliensis(Herd.)Korov.)、胀果芹(Phlojodicarpus villosus(Turcz.ex Fisch.et Mey.)Turcz.ex Ledeb.)等属的代表种显示其外壁演化程度相差甚大,应以与阿魏属(Ferula L.)分别独立为宜;环翅芹亚族(Tordyliinae Drude)中大瓣芹属(Semenovia Regel et Herd.)与独活属(Heracleum L.)的代表种其外壁演化程度相距甚远,也以分立为宜.     

Transition within the exine of Nothofagus Blume

Pollen grains with bulged areas on their proximal and distal faces were observed in some species of Nothofagus Blume in the light and electron microscopes. Pollen grains sectioned meridionally are distinctly transitionary in character in the individual strata within the exine of one pollen grain. The tectum in the apocolpia is considerably thinner than in the mesocolpia, The thickness and the character of the bacular layer in the mesocolpia differ greatly from those of the apocolpia. The foot layer, thick and always present in the mesocolpia, is entirely lacking in the apocolpia. The significant difference in the structure and thickness of the bacular layer, as well as the partial absence of the foot layer in one pollen grain, influence the cohesion between the individual strata of the exine in the apocolpia. The cohesion between the tectum and underlying, globular stratum in the central part of the apocolpia is poor, which facilitates the separation of the tectum and its bulging at that area.
