芡实花粉败育的细胞学观察

芡实（ＥｕｒｙａｌｅｆｅｒｏｘＳａｌｉｓｂ．）花粉的败育主要发生在小孢子母细胞减数分裂时期和小孢子单核期与二核期。形成的不正常四分体中有一些具有不完整的横隔壁,一些则完全不形成横隔壁,而发育成具４个核的原生质团;气候异常是造成该时期不育现象的主要原因之一。小孢子单核期及二核期存在发育异常的孢子。绒毡层的提前发育、过早解体、肥大生长及延迟退化是花粉败育的一个重要原因。

甜菜无融合生殖单体附加系M14花粉发生与发育的超微结构研究

运用透射电子显微镜技术,对甜菜无融合生殖单体附加系M14的小孢子发生、雄配子体发育以及相应的花药壁发育过程进行超微结构的观察研究,以阐明甜菜无融合生殖单体附加系M14花粉发生与发育超微结构特点以及花粉败育的时期和败育的细胞学特征.结果显示:(1)小孢子母细胞减数分裂正常,分裂期间细胞质具有明显的"细胞质改组"现象,主要表现在核糖体减少,质体、线粒体的结构发生规律性的变化,有利于孢子体向配子体的转变.M14减数分裂的胞质分裂为同时型,前期Ⅱ和中期Ⅱ形成"细胞器带";正常发育的花粉,小孢子分裂形成营养细胞和生殖细胞;生殖细胞脱离花粉壁,生殖细胞游离于营养细胞的细胞质中,最初具细胞壁,而后消失,且生殖细胞壁成分与花粉内壁成分相似.(2)三细胞型的成熟花粉含有一个营养细胞和两个具有尾突的精子;每个精子通过两层质膜与营养细胞隔开,含有一个大的精核,长尾突内含少量的细胞质以及纤丝状结构.(3)生殖细胞和精子中缺乏质体.(4)花粉的败育起始于小孢子,大部分受阻于单核-二细胞花粉期,其败育特征为花粉内液泡吞噬作用导致细胞器解体,绒毡层细胞过早解体或肥大生长致使营养供应受阻,可能是导致单核-二细胞花粉败育的主要细胞学原因.研究表明,白花甜菜第九号染色体的附加可能是导致M14大量花粉败育的遗传学因素.

木立芦荟小孢子母细胞减数分裂与花粉育性关系的初步研究

文章从减数分裂过程、小孢子发育两方面,探讨了木立芦荟（Aloe arboresens Mill.）花粉败育的原因。木立芦荟花粉母细胞染色体数目为2n=14,由四对长染色体和三对短染色体组成,属二型性核型。其减数分裂异常,发现存在单价体和多价体、染色体桥、落后染色体、不均等分离、微核等。同时观察到木立芦荟染色体具有极度的粘质性,使减数分裂各阶段的染色体不易散开。统计各种异常现象出现的频率并分析了这些异常现象形成的可能机制及对正常小孢子形成的影响,推测染色体间的丝状粘连可能是木立芦荟小孢子母细胞减数分裂异常并导致败育花粉产生的主要因素。成熟花粉粒中90%以上为败育花粉,属碘败型。     

白菜核雄性不育花药超微结构的研究

对白菜核雄性不育两用系的可育与不育花药进行了超微结构的比较观察。结果显示不育花药的造孢细胞核仁靠边分布:包裹小孢子母细胞的胼胝质厚薄不均匀,不完整等早期异常现象。减数分裂后,四分体细胞中常有多个细胞核。从四分体释放出的小孢子外壁的孢粉素物质不均匀沉积．呈不连续的单层异常结构。最后小孢子通过细胞质收缩方式败育。在可育花药中,绒毡层细胞在小孢子发育后期已显示出退化迹象,同时在细胞中开始积累脂类物质。但在同时期的不育花药中, 绒毡层细胞没有显示出退化的迹象,也不合成脂类物质。从时间上看,败育花药中小孢子母细胞及小孢子的异常在先,绒毡层细胞的异常在后。本研究揭示了白菜核雄性不育花药的超微结构特征, 对我们以前的光学显微镜观察结果予以补充和修正。

Early signs of disruption of wheat anther development associated with the induction of male sterility by meiotic-stage water deficit

 Water deficit during meiosis in microspore mother cells of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) induces male sterility, which reduces grain yield. In plants stressed during meiosis and then re-watered, division of microspore mother cells seems to proceed normally, but subsequent pollen development is arrested. Stress-affected anthers generally lack starch. We employed light microscopy in conjunction with histochemistry to compare the developmental anatomy of water-stress-affected and normal anthers. The earliest effects of stress, detectable between meiosis and young microspore stages, were the degeneration of meiocytes, loss of orientation of the reproductive cells, and abnormal vacuolization of tapetal cells. Other effects observed during subsequent developmental stages were deposition of starch in the connective tissue where it is normally not present, hypertrophy of the middle layer or endothecial cells, and deposition of sporopollenin-like substances in the anther loculus. The resulting pollen grains lacked both starch and intine. These results suggest that abnormal degeneration of the tapetum in water-stressed anthers coupled with a loss of orientation of the reproductive cells could be part of early events leading to abortion of microspores.

A Comparative Study of Anther and Pollen Development in Male Fertile and Male. Sterile Green Onion (Allium fistulosum L.)

Anther and pollen development in male-fertile and male-sterile green onions was studied. In the male-fertile line, both meiotic microspore mother ceils and tetrads have a callose wall. Mature pollen grains are 2-celled. The elongated generative cell with two bended ends displays a PAS positive cell wall. The tapetum has the character of both secretory and invasive types. From microspore stage onwards, many oil bodies or masses accumulate in the cytoplasm of the tapetal cells. The tapetum degenerates at middle 2-celled pollen stage. In male-sterile line, meiosis in microspore mother cells proceeds normally to form the tetrads. Pollen abortion occurs at microspore with vacuole stage. Two types of pollen abortion were observed. In type I, the protoplasts of the microspores contract and gradually disintegrate. At the same time the cytoplasm of microspores accumulates oil bodies which remain in the empty pollen. The tapetal cells behave normally up to the microspore stage and early stage of microspore abortion, but contain fewer oil bodies or masses than those in the male-fertilt line. At late stage of microspore abortion, three forms of the tapetal ceils can be observed: (1) the tapetal cells with degenerating protoplasts become flattened, (2) the tapetal cells enlarge but protoplasts retractor, (3) the cells break down and tile middle layer enlarges. In type Ⅱ, the cytoplasm degenerates earlier than the nucleus of the microspores and no protoplast is found in the anther locule. There are fibrous thickenings iii the endothecium of both types. It is difficult to verify whether the tapetum behavior and pollen abortion is the cause or the effect.     

杉木雄性不育株与可育株小孢子囊发育的电镜研究

杉木雄性不育属“无花粉型”,败育从无孢原细胞到四分体时期,中层细胞增生,压迫小孢子母细胞,使之养分更加缺乏并引起减数分裂异常。其表皮层和药室内壁细胞中具大量蛋白体,影响了绒毡层对小孢子发育的外源蛋白的供应;表皮层具膜状溶酶体,引起淀粉粒缺乏和酶系统代谢异常;绒毡层发育后期,缺少包被小泡、乌氏体及绒毡层膜,内质同少、短而光滑,严重影响了绒毡层对小孢子母细胞或小孢子养分和合成细胞壁物质的供给;线粒体发育异常,能量代谢减弱,导致小孢子母细胞或小孢子一系列生理活动紊乱及其原生质体解体。

The Effects of Sodium 2,3-Dichloroisobutyrate on Microsporogenesis and Fruit Set in Lycopersicon esculentum Mill

Histological and histochemical examinations of sodium 2,3-dichloroisobutyrate(DCB)treated tomato floral buds at various stages of developmentshowed that DCB affected the development of microspores andtapetal cells. DCB at 0.075 and 0.15% resulted in the formationof uninucleate microspores, absence of microspore starch, retardationof exine formation, degeneration of microspore cytoplasm, anda delay in the breakdown of the tapetum. Embryo sac developmentwas unaffected by DCB. The interference of carbohydrate metabolismby DCB was indicated. Reduction of fruit set by DCB was causedby abnormal or lack of pollen formation.     

An investigation of the role of the anther tapetum during microspore development using genetic cell ablation

The effects on anther development of a fusion of the Arabidopsis anther-specific apg gene promoter to a ribonuclease (barnase) in transgenic tobacco plants were examined. Contrary to expectations, viable pollen grains were produced by these plants despite the demonstration that ribonuclease expression in the microspores and tapetum caused targeted cell ablation. Transformed plants were reduced in male fertility due to ablation of a proportion of pollen dependent on apg-barnase locus number. Plants were otherwise phenotypically normal and fully female fertile, confirming the anther-specific nature of the apg promoter. In microspores inheriting an apg-barnase locus following meiosis, loss of cell viability, as judged by fluorescein diacetate staining, occurred during mid to late microspore development. Microspores not inheriting a transgene went on to mature into viable pollen grains. Premature degeneration of the tapetum was also observed as a result of apg-barnase expression, but this did not appear to disrupt the subsequent microspore and pollen developmental programmes. This was substantiated by observations of microspore development in plants in which the tapetum was rescued from ablation by crossing in a second transgene encoding a tapetum-specific inhibitor of the ribonuclease. It was determined that tapetum cell disruption occurs at the early to mid uninucleate microspore stage in apg-barnase transformants. The data presented show that after this point in microspore development the tapetum is no longer essential for the production of viable pollen in tobacco.
