Differences in the timing of cell death, differentiation and function among three different types of ray parenchyma cells
in the hardwood Populus sieboldii × P. grandidentata which form uniseriate and homocellular rays were examined and clarified. Ray parenchyma cells died within 5 years, and the
disappearance of nuclei from ray parenchyma cells did not occur successively from the pith side, even within individual radial
cell lines of a given ray. Cell death occurred earliest in contact cells, which were connected to adjacent vessel elements
through pits, in the fourth annual ring from the cambium. Cell death occurred next in intermediate cells, which were located
within the same cell lines as contact cells but were not adjacent to vessel elements, in the fourth annual ring from the cambium.
Finally, isolation cells, which were located within the other cell lines of a given ray, died in the fifth annual ring from
the cambium. Secondary wall thickenings in contact cells and intermediate cells were initiated before those in isolation cells
in the current year’s xylem. Most starch grains were localized in intermediate cells, and there were more lipid droplets in
contact cells and intermediate cells than in isolation cells. In addition, the largest quantities of protein were found in
contact cells. Our results indicate that the position within a ray and neighboring short-lived vessel elements might affect
the timing of cell death and differentiation and, thus, the function of long-lived ray parenchyma cells in Populus sieboldii × P. grandidentata. 相似文献

A cytochemical approach was used to study the architecture ofthe end wall and its modifications during vessel differentiationin Populus italica and Dianthus caryophyllus. The combinationof cytochemical techniques with selective extractions to removeend wall subunits provides information on the different componentsof the end wall and on the method of perforation. The end wallappears to be formed mainly from pectins and hemicelluloses.No cellulosic components nor lignin were found though the 3,3'-diaminobenzidine assay revealed the presence of peroxidases.That the method of perforation may depend on the species isdiscussed.

The cellular contact betweenStriga hermonthica andStriga asiaticaand their hosts,Zea mays andSorghum bicolor , was investigatedby light, transmission electron and scanning electron microscopy.The xylem connections between parasites and hosts involve veryspecific, clustered intrusions into the host's water conductingelements, predominantly into the large vessel elements. A singlehaustorial cell can penetrate a host vessel element with morethan one intrusion. All intrusions become covered by an additionalelectron-opaque wall layer. During subsequent differentiation,a dissolution of specific wall parts of the cell intrusionsoccurs so that open, cup- or trunk-like structures result. Thevessel-like host contact can comprise up to five openings withina single intrusion. Concomitantly, the intrusions and the haustorialcells to which they belong lose their protoplasts and transforminto elements which take up water. The walls of the haustorialcells and both wall parts of their appendages become stronglylignified. The water and nutrient absorbing structures insertedinto the host vessel are named oscula. Withinthe whole haustorial complex of bothStriga species no phloemelements were detected. Translocation of substances from hostto parasite are briefly discussed.

Circular patches of bark were surgically isolated on the sides of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) trees at breast height at various times during the dormant and growing seasons. Subsequently, samples of wood and attached bark were taken from isolated and control sites to determine the effects of isolation of the bark on cambial activity and xylem and phloem development. In control trees cambial activity and xylem and phloem development occurred normally. Isolation of bark during the dormant season (in November, February, or March) did not prevent initiation of cambial activity and of phloem differentiation in spring but continued normal cambial activity and phloem developmented were prevent. Xylem differentiation was essentially prevented by isolation of tissues during the dormant season. The ultimate effect of isolation of the bark on the cambium, either during the dormant season or during the growing season, was subdivision of all fusiform cambial cells into strands of parenchymatous elements; the ultimate effect on the newly formed phloem was early death of the sieve elements. The most conspicuous effect of isolation of the bark after xylem differentiation had begun was the curtailment of secondary wall formation. Shortening of cells of the cambial region was reflected in the length of the vessel members which differentiated from such cells. These results indicate that normal cambial activity and xylem and phloem development require a supply of currently translocated regulatory substances from the shoots. 相似文献

A cytoskeletal basis for wood formation in angiosperm trees: the involvement of cortical microtubules 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Rearrangements of cortical microtubules (CMTs) during the differentiation of axial secondary xylem elements within taproots
and shoots of Aesculus hippocastanum L. (horse-chestnut) are described. A correlative approach was employed using indirect immunofluorescence microscopy of α-tubulin
in 6- to 10-μm sections and transmission electron microscopy of ultrathin sections. All cell types – fibres, vessel elements
and axial parenchyma – derive from fusiform cambial cells which contain randomly oriented CMTs. At the early stages of development,
fibres and axial parenchyma cells possess helically arranged CMTs, which increase in number as secondary wall thickening proceeds
and simple pits develop. In contrast, incipient vessel elements are distinguished by the marking out of sites of bordered
pits; these sites first appear as microtubule-free regions within the reticulum of randomly oriented CMTs that characterises
their precursor fusiform cambial cells. Subsequently, the ring of CMTs which develops at the periphery of the microtubule-free
region decreases in diameter as the over-arching pit border is formed. Like bordered pits, large-diameter, non-bordered pits
(contact pits) which develop between vessel elements and adjacent contact ray cells originate as microtubule-free regions
and are also associated with development of a ring of CMTs at the periphery. In the case of contact pits, however, there is
no reduction in the diameter of the CMT ring during pit development. Tertiary cell wall thickenings are also a feature of
vessel elements and appear to form at sites where bands of laterally associated, transversely oriented CMTs, separated from
each other by microtubule-free zones, are found. Later, these bands of CMTs become narrower, and separate into pairs of microtubule
bundles located on each side of the developing wall thickening. Development of perforations between vessel elements is also
associated with the presence of a ring of CMTs at their periphery.

Variations in the Lengths of Fusiform Cambial Cells and Vessel Elements in Kalopanax pictus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Samples of a mature specimen of Kalopanax pictus, a ring-poroushardwood, were studied to compare the respective lengths offusiform cambial cells and vessel elements in the stem. Thelengths of dormant and reactivated fusiform cambial cells weremeasured with a confocal laser scanning microscope in tissuethat had been macerated by digestion with pectinase and in thicktangential sections. The lengths of early wood and late woodvessel elements were measured in tissues that had been maceratedby Franklin's method. The vessel elements and fusiform cambialcells varied considerably in length within individual samples.The mean length of early wood vessel elements corresponded tothat of fusiform cells in the dormant cambium but not in thereactivated cambium. Significant differences were observed betweenthe mean lengths of dormant and reactivated fusiform cambialcells, between those of reactivated fusiform cambial cells andearly wood vessel elements, between those of reactivated fusiformcambial cells and late wood vessel elements, and between thoseof early wood and late wood vessel elements. The frequency distributionsof lengths of cambial cells were bimodal and differed from thoseof vessel elements, which more closely resembled a normal distribution.The proportion of shorter lengths was higher in the reactivatedcambium than in the dormant cambium, the early wood and thelate wood vessel elements. Our results do not suppot the hypothesisthat the lengths of early wood vessel elements in ring-poroushardwoods change during differentiation. The similar rangesof recorded lengths suggest that short and long vessel elementsmight be derived directly from short and long cambial cells,respectively.

Circular patches of bark were surgically isolated on the sides of sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) trees at breast height at various times during the dormant and growing seasons. Subsequently, samples of wood and attached bark were taken from isolated and control sites to determine the effects of isolation of the bark on cambial activity and xylem and phloem development. In control sites cambial activity and xylem and phloem development occurred normally. Isolation of bark during the dormant season (in November, February, or March) prevented initiation of cambial activity and xylem and phloem development in isolated areas of half of the trees. Varying degrees of cambial activity (periclinal divisions) occurred in the remaining isolated areas, but normal cambial activity and xylem and phloem development were prevented. Isolation of bark after initiation of cambial activity and phloem differentiation, but prior to initiation of xylem differentiation, resulted in the formation of very narrow xylem and phloem increments with atypically short vessel members and sieve-tube members, respectively. The xylem increments consisted primarily of parenchyma cells. Isolation of bark after initiation of xylem differentiation resulted in curtailment of secondary wall formation in the last-formed part of many increments. The last-formed vessel members of all these xylem increments were atypically short. Similarly, the last formed sieve-tube members of corresponding phloem increments were atypically short. The atypically short cells in the xylem and phloem of isolated areas reflected the effect of isolation on the cambial region, viz., the subdivision of all fusiform cells into strands of cells. Ultimately, the strands of short fusiform cells lapsed into maturity, leaving only strands of parenchymatous elements between xylem and phloem. 相似文献

Xyloglucan endo-transglycosylases (XETs) encoded by xyloglucan endo-transglycosylases/hydrolase (XTH) genes modify the xyloglucan-cellulose framework of plant cell walls, thereby regulating their expansion and strength. To evaluate the importance of XET in wood development, we studied xyloglucan dynamics and XTH gene expression in developing wood and modified XET activity in hybrid aspen (Populus tremula × tremuloides) by overexpressing PtxtXET16-34. We show that developmental modifications during xylem differentiation include changes from loosely to tightly bound forms of xyloglucan and increases in the abundance of fucosylated xyloglucan epitope recognized by the CCRC-M1 antibody. We found that at least 16 Populus XTH genes, all likely encoding XETs, are expressed in developing wood. Five genes were highly and ubiquitously expressed, whereas PtxtXET16-34 was expressed more weakly but specifically in developing wood. Transgenic up-regulation of XET activity induced changes in cell wall xyloglucan, but its effects were dependent on developmental stage. For instance, XET overexpression increased abundance of the CCRC-M1 epitope in cambial cells and xylem cells in early stages of differentiation but not in mature xylem. Correspondingly, an increase in tightly bound xyloglucan content was observed in primary-walled xylem but a decrease was seen in secondary-walled xylem. Thus, in young xylem cells, XET activity limits xyloglucan incorporation into the tightly bound wall network but removes it from cell walls in older cells. XET overexpression promoted vessel element growth but not fiber expansion. We suggest that the amount of nascent xyloglucan relative to XET is an important determinant of whether XET strengthens or loosens the cell wall. 相似文献

Certain developmental features of cell wall hydrolysis werestudied in the secondary xylem of poplar (Populus italica Moench).At the intervascular pit membrane hydrolysis starts prematurelybefore differentiation of the secondary wall is complete andincreases progressively. Eventually the whole of the middlelamella is hydrolysed, and the primary wall undergoes lyticmodification. The modified polysaccharides are dispersed, presumablyby the transpiration stream. During differentiation the vessel-parenchymapit membrane remains unaltered and undergoes thickening. Thepresent investigation suggests that the plasalemma plays animportant role in the ordered hydrolysis of certain regionsof the primary walls.

Ultrastructure of the Cell Wall of Vessel Contact Cells in the Xylem of Tomato Stems 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Mature contact cells in the metaxylem of tomato stems are characterizedby a distinctive wall deposit occurring mainly over the areaof the pit membrane that separates the cell from an adjoiningvessel member but also extending as a layer on the secondarywall round the interior of the cell. Cytochemical tests showthe layer contains a low concentration of pectin, no lignin,and a high concentration of polysaccharides. It can be distinguishedfrom the primary and secondary walls by quantitative differencesin the cytochemical staining reactions and by its loose-texturedappearance under the electron microscope. The layer is similarin composition and structure to the protective layerdescribed in woody plants. The layer has also been found inpea and cotton and may be a characteristic feature of the contactcells in herbaceous plants.

The application of nitrogen-containing fertilisers is one approach used to increase growth rates and productivity of forest
tree plantations. However, the effects of nitrogen fertilisation on wood properties have not been systematically assessed.
The aim of this work was to document the impacts of nitrogen fertilisation on wood formation and secondary xylem fibre properties.
We used three fertilisation treatments in which the level of ammonium nitrate was adjusted to 0, 1 and 10 mM in a complete
nutrient solution applied daily over a period of 28 days in standardised greenhouse experiments with clonal material of Populus trichocarpa (Torr and Gray) × deltoides (Bartr. ex Marsh). We showed that there was a short-term and repeatable response in which xylem fibre morphology and secondary
cell wall structure adapt to a shift in N availability. Under high-nitrogen exposure, xylem fibres were 17% wider and 18%
shorter compared to the adequate nitrogen treatment. A very significant thickening of the fibre cell walls was also observed
throughout the stem of trees receiving the high-N treatment. It appeared that cell wall structure was greatly affected by
the high-N treatment as fibres developed a modified inner cell wall layer. Histological observations indicated that the internal
cell wall layer was enriched in cellulose and chemical determinations showed that wood contained more holocellulose. Together,
these results indicate that the response of poplar to nitrogen availability may involve marked effects on secondary xylem
formation. 相似文献

Using light and electron microscopic techniques, we studied the unique occurrence of fibrillar cell wall deposits in mature xylem fibres from poplar. These cell wall deposits lined the lumen-facing side of the wall, mainly in fibres next to vessel elements. Different lines of evidence point to the pectin-like nature of these fibrillar cell wall deposits. First, specific staining by Alcian Blue 8GX, a dye with high affinity for pectic substances. Second, the strongly reduced staining of the cell wall deposits in microscopic sections treated with pectolytic enzyme. Third, concomitant staining of pits, which are known to consist mainly of pectic substances. Given the pectin-like nature of the fibrillar cell wall deposits as well as their preferred occurrence in fibres neighbouring water-conducting vessel elements, a function for the fibrillar cell wall deposits in lateral water diffusion and stem water storage is hypothesised. The hypothesis is supported by the increased abundance of these cell wall deposits in wood tissue of a drought-sensitive poplar species. 相似文献

High-throughput single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has advantages over traditional RNA-seq to explore spatiotemporal information on gene dynamic expressions in heterogenous tissues. We performed Drop-seq, a method for the dropwise sequestration of single cells for sequencing, on protoplasts from the differentiating xylem of Populus alba × Populus glandulosa. The scRNA-seq profiled 9,798 cells, which were grouped into 12 clusters. Through characterization of differentially expressed genes in each cluster and RNA in situ hybridizations, we identified vessel cells, fiber cells, ray parenchyma cells and xylem precursor cells. Diffusion pseudotime analyses revealed the differentiating trajectory of vessels, fiber cells and ray parenchyma cells and indicated a different differentiation process between vessels and fiber cells, and a similar differentiation process between fiber cells and ray parenchyma cells. We identified marker genes for each cell type (cluster) and key candidate regulators during developmental stages of xylem cell differentiation. Our study generates a high-resolution expression atlas of wood formation at the single cell level and provides valuable information on wood formation. 相似文献

Ancestral cacti presumably had abundant, fibrous, heavily lignifiedwood, similar to that present in the relictual, leaf-bearinggenus Pereskia. During the evolutionary radiation of the subfamilyCactoideae, diverse types of bodies and woods arose. Severalevolutionary lines have retained an abundant, fibrous wood:all wood cells, even ray cells, have thick lignified walls,and axial parenchyma is only scanty paratracheal. Aside froma diversity of vessel diameters, there seems to be little protectionagainst cavitation during water-stress, and little water-storagecapacity. This strong wood permits the plants to be tall andto compete for light in their tree-shaded semi-arid habitats.In other evolutionary lines, the wood lacks fibres, and almostall cells have thin, unlignified walls. Vessels occur in anextensive matrix of water-storing parenchyma, and tracheidsare also abundant, constituting over half the axial tissue insome species. There is excellent protection against cavitation,but little mechanical support for the plant body; however, theseplants are short and occur in extremely arid, unshaded sites.Scandent, vinelike plants of two genera produce a dimorphicwoodwhile their shoots are extending without externalsupport, they produce fibrous, lignified wood, but after leaningagainst a host branch, they produce a parenchymatous, unlignifiedwood.Copyright 1993, 1999 Academic Press Cactaceae, cactus, water-stress, wood, evolution, xylem 相似文献

Although poplar is widely used for genomic and biotechnological manipulations of wood, the cellular basis of wood development in poplar has not been accurately documented at an ultrastructural level. Developing secondary xylem cells from hybrid poplar (Populus deltoides × P. trichocarpa), which were actively making secondary cell walls, were preserved with high pressure freezing/freeze substitution for light and electron microscopy. The distribution of xylans and mannans in the different cell types of developing secondary xylem were detected with immunofiuorescence and immuno-gold labeling. While xylans, detected with the monoclonal antibody LM10, had a general distribution across the secondary xylem, mannans were enriched in the S2 secondary cell wall layer of fibers. To observe the cellular structures associated with secondary wall production, cryofixed fibers were examined with transmission electron microscopy during differentiation. There were abundant cortical microtubules and endomembrane activity in cells during the intense phase of secondary cell wall synthesis. Microtubule-associated small membrane compartments were commonly observed, as well as Golgi and secretory vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane. 相似文献

The formation of tracheary elements was induced in calli derived from petioles of hybrid poplar (Populus sieboldii × P. grandidentata) after 10 days of culture on medium that lacked auxin but contained 1 μM brassinolide. Some differentiated cells formed broad regions of cell walls and bordered pits, which are typical features of tracheary elements of secondary xylem. Other differentiated cells resembled tracheary elements of primary xylem, with spiral or reticulate thickening of cell walls. The tracheary elements that developed in calli were formed within cell clusters. This induction system provides a new model for studies of the mechanism of differentiation of secondary xylem cells in vitro. 相似文献

Summary The development of pit-pairs between differentiating xylem cells has been examined by transmission electron microscopy in young shoots ofSorbus torminalis. In some vessel-to-tracheid pits, as well as in previously studied intertracheid pits, a thickening of the pit membrane containing branched plasmodesmata was observed. A secondary wall-like cap was deposited over the thickening prior to cytoplasmic autolysis; some plasmodesmata, parallel to the plane of section, appeared to perforate the cap. At the end of the cell maturation stage, the central part of the primary wall thickening was hydrolysed, while the cap, including plasmodesmata remnants, appeared unaltered. In half-bordered pit-pairs between a parenchyma cell and a vessel or a tracheid, similar structures could be observed beside the conducting elements. When the vessel or tracheid matured, sealing of the pit membrane plasmodesmata resulted from the formation of a protective layer on the parenchyma-side rather than from the deposition of a cap on the conducting cell-side. These observations provide the first information on the presence of symplasmic connections in pits between differentiating vessels and neighbouring xylem cells. InS. torminalis, xylem differentiation is probably highly coordinated within a symplasmic domain; the persistence of such connections may account for the lack of specialization ofSorbus wood. 相似文献

Bast fibre development in jute (Corchorus spp.) is a complex process that involves the differentiation of secondary phloic fibres (SPF) from the cambium followed by lignification of the fibre wall. We have identified a unique radiation-induced bast fibre-shy mutant of dark jute (C. olitorius L.), which is concurrently defective in the differentiation of SPF and secondary xylem (wood) but develops lignified fibre cells. It displays the most unusual phenotype with stunted growth and abnormal leaf shape, matures earlier, yields significantly less bast fibres and wood, and produces poorer quality fibres than its parental wild-type. Cambial activities in the mutant and the normal type were monitored by estimating the fibre content that entails the total number of fibre cell bundles (FCBs) in an entire transversal section. The results show that a multi-fold reduction of bast fibre yield in the mutant is related to development-specific loss of cambium function along the length of the stem from to top to bottom. Since lignification of the fibre wall in the mutant is not only normal but also developmentally uniform, cambium function may be unrelated to the lignification process during bast fibre development. Lignin does not influence bast fibre strength and fineness. The architecture of the mostly triangular FCB wedges, which is governed by a balanced growth between radially elongating FCBs and tangentially expanding ray cells due to development-specific activation of the fusiform and ray initials of the cambium, conditions fibre fineness. Our study shows that mutation could specifically impair the cambial activity by rendering those initials that differentiate the SPF and secondary xylem nonfunctional. 相似文献
