辣椒花药培养胚状体发生的组织学和细胞学研究

采用荧光显微镜、扫描电镜和透射电镜技术．系统研究了辣椒花药培养胚状体发生的组织学和细胞学变化特征。辣椒单个花药中花粉发育具有强烈的不同步性。随着培养时期的变化．不同时期花粉的百分率也发生变化。处于单核靠边期的小孢子培养以后按两种发育途径之一进行发育。在多数情况下，孢子体不对称分裂，产生典型双核花粉。胚性花粉粒是由营养核的重复分裂形成的。当小孢子从四分体中释放出来．特殊类型的外壁已经形成。在随后的花粉发育过程中．小孢子体积增大，外壁继续加厚。培养24h后，小孢子体积增大。胚性发生的小孢子表现出两种不同的形态变化。当胚状体发育到心形胚时．胚状体的表皮细胞排列规则。用光学和电子显微镜分析了小孢子胚状体形态形成过程．及胚状体诱导后细胞组织发生的一系列结构变化的时序性特征，这些变化主要影响质体、液泡室、细胞壁和细胞核，进一步分化的程序模拟合子胚的发育。

HISTOLOGICAL AND CYTOLOGICAL STUDY ON THE ONTOGENY OF EMBRYOID IN PEPPER ANTHER CULTURE

The characteristics of histology and cytology of embryogenesis in pepper anther culture were examined with fluorescence microscopy, scanning microscopy, and electron microscopy. Pepper was characterized by a strong asynchrony of pollen development within a single anther. With the change of culture period, the proportion of dead pollen increased drastically from 2 day after culture. Microspores that were cultured at the late-uninucleate stage followed one of two developmental pathways. In the more common route, the first sporophytic division was asymmetric and produced what appeared to be typical bicellular pollen. Embryogenic pollen was formed by repeated divisions of the vegetative nuclei. An exine with its specific pattern had already been formed, when microspores were released from tetrads. During subsequent pollen development, microspores increased in size and continued to strengthen the exine. After 24h in culture, the microspores had increased in size. Thereafter, embryogenesis was indicated in some microspores by two different morphological changes. One featured an expansion in volume of the cell cluster around the germination aperture, the other showed cell cluster volume expansion over the entire microspore surface. Morphogenesis of microspore-derived embryos has been analyzed, at both light and electron microscopical levels. The changes in cell organization after embryogenesis induction, and the characterization of the time sequence of a set of structural events, had been also explained. These changes mainly affected the plastids, the vacuolar compartment, the cell wall and the nucleus. Further differentiation processes mimicked that of the zygotic development.
