莴苣授粉前后柱头与花柱中钙的分布变化

莴苣柱头呈两裂片状,有接受花粉的接受面和非接受面之分。授粉前后,柱头接受面乳突细胞的细胞壁中贮存丰富的细小钙颗粒,而非接受面的表皮细胞壁中的钙颗粒很少。在花柱组织中钙的分布具有明显特征,在同一水平上,钙主要分布在引导组织的质外体中,如细胞壁和细胞间隙中,而在引导组织外的薄壁组织中钙主要分布在的细胞内液炮和细胞壁中以及维管束导管内。在花柱不同水平上,花柱中的钙呈现出梯度分布,顶端各组织中的钙颗粒较少,基部各组织中的钙颗粒较多。授粉后1h花柱基部组织的钙颗粒增多,钙梯度分布现象增强。花柱引导组织中的钙梯度分布很可能是吸引花粉管向下生长的原因。讨论了莴苣花柱引导组织中钙梯度分布特征和花粉管在其体内生长的关系。

通过Western印迹法、免疫组织化学和超微细胞化学等技术,研究了烟草柱头和花柱中阿拉伯半乳糖蛋白（arabinogalactan-proteins,AGPs）的分布。结果表明烟草柱头和花柱组织中含有大量的AGPs,主要分布于柱头表皮细胞的细胞质和分泌层细胞的胞外基质中,且授粉前后AGPs的分布情况差异不明显;而花柱中的AGPs主要分布于表皮细胞的外层细胞壁、维管组织周围细胞的细胞质及引导组织的胞外基质中;花粉管通过后,引导组织胞外基质中AGPs减少,而花粉管细胞质和花粉管壁中检测到大量AGPs。     

荞麦亲和与不亲和授粉后柱头和花粉管中ATP酶的超微细胞化学定位

利用磷酸铅沉淀技术对荞麦(Fagopyrum esculentum Month.)pin型植株分别进行亲和授粉和不亲和授粉后的柱头、花粉粒、花粉管进行了ATPase的超微细胞化学定位。结果表明(1)亲和授粉和不亲和授粉后0.5h,柱头细胞的ATPase活性反应水平较低或基本无酶活性;柱头表面、柱头上附着的花粉粒内ATPase活性在不亲和授粉时较低,亲和授粉时较高,花粉粒内ATPase主要定位于线粒体和精子细胞;(2)授粉后1.5h,不亲和授粉的柱头细胞及花粉管的ATPase活性均较低,花粉管停止生长,细胞质开始解体;而亲和授粉的柱头细胞及花粉管的ATPase活性均较高,ATPase主要定位于柱头细胞的质膜、胞基质以及花粉管的壁、质体的膜、高尔基体、线粒体上。根据不同时期不同部位ATPase活性的差异,我们认为荞麦发生自交不亲和时,花粉管在花柱中停止生长不仅是因为花粉管得不到花柱中的营养物质而引起的,可能也与花粉管自身物质代谢发生障碍有关。

授粉对烟草花柱引导组织结构的影响

花柱内引导组织是花粉管生长时的必需结构,对花粉管的生长具有支持、营养、引导生长等重要作用。为了研究授粉对花柱引导组织结构的影响,该研究对烟草开花后不授粉及授粉1~4d内的花柱引导组织结构动态进行了观察比较。研究发现:未授粉花柱内的引导组织的变化是一个类似于衰老的死亡过程,授粉后花柱内引导组织细胞发生剧烈变化,细胞快速死亡,与未授粉花柱的引导组织的变化完全不同,它们可能是两种完全不同的调控方式。

Ultracytochemical Localization of Calcium in the Stigma,Style and Micropyle of Sunflower

Calcium was localized ultracytochemically in the stigma, style and micropyle of sun-flower (Helianthus annuus L. ) by pyroantimonate precipitation technique. To identify the element constitution of the pyroantimonate deposits, wave-dispersive X-ray microanalysis (WDX) method was employed in addition to the energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis (EDX) and the deposits observed were directly proved as calcium pyroantimonate. In the stigma, calcium was more abundant on the receptive surface, especially outside and inside the papillae, than on the noo-receptive surface. In the style, more calcium was seen in the transmitting tissue as compared with the adjacent parenchymatous tissue, and was concentrated at the intercellular matrix and the boundary between the cell wall and the intercellular matrix. In micropyle region, the transmitting tissue on the side proximal to the funicle contained large amount of calcium, where as more calcium was localized in the intercellular matrix. As for the pollen tubes growing along the gynoecium, calcium was mainly localized at the pectin layer of the tube wall after 1.5 hours of pollination.     

莴苣助细胞发育过程中钙的分布研究

用焦锑酸盐沉淀法对莴苣助细胞中的钙分布进行了观察。结果表明,开花前3天刚形成的助细胞中的钙颗粒很少:开花前2天助细胞壁中的钙颗粒增加;开花前1天助细胞珠孔端细胞壁加厚,其中积累了许多钙颗粒:开花当天助细胞珠孔端的丝状器中聚集了大量的钙颗粒。授粉后1h时两个助细胞的结构和钙分布发生差异,一个呈退化状,其中的钙颗粒明显增多,另一宿存助细胞中的钙分布与授粉前相似。去雄不授粉1天后两个助细胞均保持完好,且两助细胞中的钙分布没有明显差异,表明由花粉管引起一个助细胞中钙含量增加进而导致了助细胞退化。退化助细胞在卵细胞与中央细胞之间形成一薄层。助细胞退化后不同部位的钙颗粒呈现出与受精作用密切有关的变化:授粉后1h时,钙主要聚集在近合点端部位;授粉后2.5h卵细胞即将受精,这时许多细小的钙颗粒主要聚集在卵细胞与中央细胞之间的薄层中;授粉后4h精、卵细胞已融合,这时退化助细胞合点端的钙颗粒明显减少,而在其珠孔端又聚集了较多的钙。上述助细胞中的钙含量变化与吸引花粉管进入胚囊和促使精卵细胞融合密切有关。     

Immunocytochemical localization of esterified and unesterified pectins in unpollinated and pollinated styles of Petunia hybrida Hort

Localization of pectins in the style of Petunia hybrida before and after pollination was investigated by immunocytochemistry using two primary monoclonal antibodies specific to highly (JIM7) and weakly (JIM5) methylesterified pectins. In the unpollinated style, esterified pectins occurred mainly in the cell walls of cortex tissue, while unesterified pectins were present mainly in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of the transmitting tract. After pollination no remarkable differences were found in pectin distribution in the ground tissue of the style. On the other hand, in the transmitting tract a reduction in the quantity of unesterified pectins was observed. Unesterified pectins in the extracellular regions of the transmitting tissue decreased before the penetration of the pollen tubes, indicating that pollination induces a reduction in the amount of unesterified pectins in the transmitting-tract ECM. The correlation between the degradation of strongly Ca2+-binding pectins and the growing level of those ions in the extracellular regions of the transmitting tract in the pollinated pistil of P. hybrida (M. Lenartowska et al. 1997) suggests that this process may constitute a mechanism for creating an optimum calcium medium for in vivo-growing pollen tubes. Both pectin categories were localized in pollen tubes. Esterified pectin epitopes were localized mainly in the vesicles of the tip cytoplasm. Unesterified pectin epitopes were found in the external fibrillar wall of pollen tubes.     

Cotton embryogenesis: The tissues of the stigma and style and their relation to the pollen tube

Summary The stigma of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) is covered by unicellular hairs. The cytoplasm of these hairs degenerates before the stigma becomes receptive. The vacuole remains intact, but the hair cytoplasm becomes a mass of dark, amorphous material with only a few organelles still being visible. The rest of the stigma consists of thin-walled parenchyma cells with large vacuoles and large amounts of starch. The cells of the style are differentiated into a uniseriate epidermis, vascular tissue, a cortex of thin-walled, vacuolate parenchyma cells, and the transmitting tissue. This latter tissue occupies the center of the style and consists of thick-walled cells with few vacuoles. The cells are rich in starch, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum and dictyosomes. They also contain deposits of calcium salts in the form of druses. The pollen germinates on the stigmatic hairs, grows down the outside of the hair and between the cells of the stigma to the transmitting tissue of the style. There the tubes grow between the walls of the cells but do not enter the cells themselves. Some transmitting cells adjacent to the pollen tube degenerate after the tip of the pollen tube has grown past them. However, not all degenerate, and those that do show no fixed spatial relationship to one another. The cells which do degenerate follow a characteristic pattern of breakdown. No ultrastructural evidence was found for the secretion of hydrolytic enzymes by the pollen tube.     

不同葡萄品种柱头、花柱发育与种子形成的关系

对‘京秀’、‘香妃’(二倍体)和‘黑奥林’、‘巨峰’(四倍体)葡萄品种的柱头、花柱发生发育以及花粉管在雌蕊中生长与坐果和果实中种子形成的关系进行了研究。结果显示:‘京秀’、‘香妃’的坐果率和果实中的种子数明显高于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’,而‘巨峰’葡萄的坐果率和种子数最低。开花期‘京秀’和‘香妃’的花柱直径略小于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’,但花柱中部引导组织的直径和引导组织所占花柱的比例却大于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’;半实心花柱的比例也高于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’,说明花柱中引导组织的结构和发育状况可能与坐果和果实中种子形成有关;人工授粉24 h后,在‘京秀’和‘香妃’雌蕊中花粉管的生长速度快于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’,授粉后48 h‘京秀’和‘香妃’雌蕊中到达各部位的花粉管数要多于‘黑奥林’和‘巨峰’,授粉后72 h各品种到达子房各部位的花粉管数开始减少。表明‘京秀’和‘香妃’花柱中引导组织较为发达,而且半实心花柱比例也较高,有利于花粉管在雌蕊中的生长和完成授粉受精,使‘京秀’和‘香妃’的坐果率和果实中种子的形成都较高。     

Changes of pH in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Petunia hybrida</Emphasis> (Hort.) styles induced by pollination and influence of proton pump and ion channels on its regulation

Ionselective microelectrode method was used to study changes of pH in transmitting tissue of style in Petunia hybrida (Hort.). Effect of pollination and pollen tube growth were examined. Subsequently solutions of ions and various stimulators or blockers of ion channels were applied on pollinated styles to examine the possible role of ion channels in pH stabilisation. It was confirmed in the present study that: (1) there is a pH gradient in the transmitting tissue of a petunia unpollinated style with the stigma region being more acidic; (2) pollination causes further acidification of transmitting tissue: (3) the gradient of pH first vanishes at 24 h after pollination then is reversed up to 72 h after pollination; (4) active transport of ions plays an important role in pH regulation in transmitting tissue. The presented results confirm the role of pH changes and Ca²⁺ as a mediator in controlling proton influx into the apoplast of the transmitting tissue during pollen tube growth.     

Distribution of calcium in the stigma and style of tobacco during pollen germination and tube elongation

Potassium antimonate was used to locate loosely bound calcium in the stigma and style of tobacco. The tobacco stigma is wet and covered by a thick layer of glycoprotein exudate at anthesis. The exudate contains abundant vesicles, which are densely labeled with calcium precipitates. When pollen grains arrive at the stigma, become hydrated, and as the pollen swells, Ca²⁺ precipitates accumulate at the aperture. Calcium precipitates that accumulate in pollen cytoplasm are initially concentrated within small vacuoles, but as germination proceeds these appear to fuse, forming prominent, densely labeled vesicles that preferentially accumulate near the proximal region of the growing tube. Although the stigma has abundant particles, few calcium precipitates are observed in the transmitting tissue from anthesis to 11 h after pollination. However, at 22 h after pollination, accumulation of calcium increases distally from the stigmatic interface with the transmitting tissue through the length of the style to the ovary. An examination of flowering plants with differing floral biology will be needed to understand the role of loosely bound calcium accumulation and its relationship to tissue-level changes in calcium uptake, maintenance of other calcium pools, including [Ca²⁺]_cyt, and in pollen and style maturation during the progamic phase.
