玉米根冠中类外连丝的结构特征及其共质传输功能(简报)

胞间连丝是植物体内连接两个相邻细胞原生质体的共质运输通道,在胞间物质的转运和通讯联络上发挥重要作用。胞间连丝的功能在生理上主要体现在它对胞间转运物质的通透性（permeability）,通透性的变化和调节影响到许多生理过程的进展与协调。在植物的不同组织及其发育的不同阶段,不同的物化因素,不同的逆境胁迫以及病原物的侵染均可导致胞间连丝的通透性呈现相应的变动。胞间连丝存在形式的多样性以及对其不同程度和不同方式的修饰,均可对胞间连丝的生理功能及其通透性有明显的影响。[第一段]

Intercellular movement of protoplasm in vivo in developing endosperm of wheat caryopses

Summary Earlier work in our laboratory indicated that protoplasmic constituents can migrate from one cell to another in certain tissues of higher plants. Further investigations have been conducted using garlic bulbs and wheat nucellus for microscopic observation of intercellular protoplasmic movement in vivo. These gave preliminary indications of the dynamic characteristics of migrating nuclei and cytoplasm. The present paper gives recent results providing new evidence for intercellular protoplasmic movement that is neither hindered by the presence of cell wall nor the narrowness of channels of intercellular connection. By careful manipulation, intact endosperm sacs could be taken from developing caryopses (6–8 days after fertilization) without apparent injury to constituent cells. Shortly after the living specimen is mounted on the microscopic stage, asynchronous intercellular protoplasmic movement can be observed here and there. It can be seen that protoplasm extrudes in rapid but intermittent movements from one cell to the next by vigorous contraction. Although various cell constituents may move together, they can also be quite independent of each other. The moving units, though undergoing violent deformation, resume their normal shape and structure following intercellular migration. Evidently this kind of movement is a naturally occurring and active phenomenon closely related to the physiological state of the tissue. Electron microscopic studies reveal that a limited number of plasmodesmatal channels undergo modification and enlarge to 100–400 nm, through which the protoplasmic constituents pass.

THE ROUTE OF ENTRY AND LOCALIZATION OF BLOOD PROTEINS IN THE OOCYTES OF SATURNIID MOTHS

The oocytes of saturniid moths take up proteins selectively from the blood. The distribution of blood proteins in the ovary during protein uptake was investigated by staining 2 µ sections of freeze-dried ovaries with fluorescein-labeled antibodies. The results indicate that blood proteins occur primarily in the intercellular spaces of the follicle cell layer, in association with a brush border at the surface of the oocyte, and within the oocyte in the yolk spheres. That proteins derived from the blood are associated with the yolk spheres was confirmed by isolating these bodies and showing that lysis, which can be induced by any of a number of mechanical means, causes them to release immunologically defined proteins known to be derived from the blood. That the level of blood proteins in the cytoplasm is low relatively to that in the yolk spheres was confirmed by the observation that the yellow pigments associated with several blood proteins, although conspicuous in the yolk spheres, are not visible in the translucent layer of centrifuged oocytes. From these and previous physiological observations, it is proposed that blood proteins reach the surface of the oocyte by an intercellular route, that they combine with some component of the brush border, and that they are transformed into yolk spheres by a process akin to pinocytosis.

对亲本受孕时生理状态与子代性比关系的某些理论的检验

在亲本受孕时生理状态与代性比的关系上存在着多种理论。在１９８８－１９９２年期间，作者用实验对其中的营养理论、氧化还原理论、酸碱理论和激素假说的部分观点进行了检验。结果表明：这些理论在某种速度上均具有合理性。作者还发现：这些理论之间是相互联系的。用一系列生理指标来描述双亲受孕时影响子代性比的生理状态，对于通过调节配种时双亲的生理状态来控制子代性比具有重要意义。     

A SEASONAL STUDY OF THE VEGETATIVE SHOOT APEX AND THE PATTERN OF PITH DEVELOPMENT IN HIBISCUS SYRIACUS

Tolbert , Robert J. (West Virginia U., Morgantown.) A seasonal study of the vegetative shoot apex and the pattern of pith development in Hibiscus syriacus. Amer. Jour. Bot. 48(3): 249–255. Illus. 1961.—The shoot apex of Hibiscus syriacus L. is described as having a cytohistological zonation superimposed on a tunica-corpus configuration. The apex is flat-topped or may have a saddle-back or concave appearance as seen in median longitudinal section. The metrameristem, consisting of the tunica and corpus initials, is comprised of large, light-staining, vacuolate cells that have thick cell walls and exhibit much dark-staining intercellular substance. Surrounding the metrameristem is the flanking meristem, which is responsible for the outer layers of the shoot, and from which the leaf primordia arise. The pith rib meristem lies below the metrameristem and consists of files of cells that are responsible for the pith. There are no major seasonal changes in the structure of the apex during the yearly cycle. The pith displays a long-shoot type of development with the cells remaining in distinct files during the first flush of growth in the spring. As growth slows and internode elongation is gradually reduced, the pith displays the characteristic short-shoot type of development, consisting of a spongy tissue of rounded cells with many intercellular spaces and no distinct files of cells. A crown is differentiated across the top of the pith at the end of the growth period. This consists of a band of cells with thick, dark-staining cell walls, which separates by the apex from the last year's growth. In contrast to many gymnosperms, this crown is dispersed by renewed cell activity the following spring.     

枸杞花药发育过程中脂滴和淀粉粒的分布特征

宁夏枸杞(Lycium barbarurn L．)花药发育过程中,淀粉粒和脂滴两种营养物质的积累和分布具有一定的特点：在造孢细胞时期,药隔薄壁细胞,表皮和药室内壁细胞中开始积累淀粉粒,而造孢细胞、绒毡层细胞和中层细胞中则没有淀粉粒。在四分体时期,绒毡层细胞开始积累脂滴并且数量逐渐增加。到小孢子晚期,绒毡层细胞降解,内含脂滴流入药室中。在小孢子发育过程中既没有淀粉粒也没有脂滴积累,直到二胞花粉的大液泡消失后花粉粒中才开始积累脂滴,然后又开始出现淀粉粒。枸杞成熟花粉中的营养储存物是脂滴和淀粉粒。     

根系温度对苋菜生长及光合特性的影响

气候室中研究了根温对苋菜幼苗生长及光合等生理特性的影响。结果表明,苋菜幼苗生长曲线呈S形, 30d苗龄时生长最快, 40d苗龄时每株干、鲜重分别为0.45g和6.79g。20~25℃根温时40d苗龄苋菜生长最快,高根温对生长的危害大于低根温, 40℃根温苋菜根系生长、代谢受害严重。苋菜净光合速率(Pn)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔导度(Cs)和胞间CO2分压(Pi)随根温的变化趋势基本一致, 20~25℃根温时,Cs、Pi、Pn和Tr均高,不良根温影响了Cs,使Tr降低, Pi降低,进而影响到Pn。回归分析表明, Pn与Cs、Pn与Pi、Tr与Cs、Pi与Cs均呈显著正相关。说明Cs下降是不良根温影响Pn的主要原因。     

STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL HETEROGENEITY OF THE SURFACE OF RAT LEUKEMIA CELLS

Rat leukemia cells IRC 741 in suspension culture form single cytoplasmic protrusions by which the cells preferentially adhere to one another. The induction and/or maintenance of these protrusions is sensitive to changes in intercellular contact, pH, temperature, and nutritional conditions. The protrusions are stable, rigid structures which take part in intercellular adhesion but not in adhesion to substrata. Movement on substrata occurs by means of ruffling membranes formed on the main cell body. This asymmetry in cellular form and function is associated with specialized cell surface regions. Ultrastructurally, the cell surface over the protrusions lacks microvilli, and is covered with a 3,000–4,000-Å thick cell coat consisting of 200–500-Å electron-dense particles in an amorphous matrix. In contrast, the surface over the main cell body has microvilli and a 200-Å wide cell coat which lacks particles. The extracellular particles overlying the protrusions have electron-lucent cores, are protease- and pepsin-resistant, and do not stain with colloidal iron, while the matrix in which they are embedded is sensitive to proteolytic enzymes and contains acidic moieties. The negative surface charge density over the protrusions is higher than that over the main cell body, as shown by the orientation of the cells in an electric field. The unexpected observation that a region of higher charge density is one of increased intercellular adhesiveness might be explained, in part, by the rigidity of the protrusions and by the very small radius of curvature of the overlying extracellular particles. The protrusions permit the observation of discrete regions, differing in charge density, on the surface of living leukemia cells.
