Corolla tube formation was investigated anatomically for 13 species of the Primulaceae and Ericales. In the Primulaceae, petal primordia appear after the stamen initiation. The lower portion of the corolla tube, the portion under the stamen insertion, is derived from the ring-like structure formed immediately after the stamen initiation. Petal bases extend laterally, and connect mutually on the ring-like structure. The upward growth at the connected regions results in the formation of a corolla tube, which develops into the upper portion of the corolla tube. In the Ericales, except forClethra, the corolla tube is formed by the mutual connection of petal bases. This tube elongates inRhododendron, Leucothoe andPieris. However, inPyrola, Ledum andTripetaleia, the elongation of this tube is meager, resulting in a dialypetalous condition in the mature state. Three petals ofTripetaleia may be derived from the partial connection of five petal primordia in a very early stage of the corolla development. From the data obtained in the studies on the corolla tube formation, three modes of the corolla tube formation are suggested; postgenital fusion, connection of petal bases, elongation of the ring-like common base. 相似文献

Chalazal endosperm haustorium in Rhinanthus serotinus consists of a single large binucleate cell. It originates from the primary endosperm cell dividing transversely into two unequal cells: a smaller micropylar cell and a larger chalazal cell. The chalazal cell undergoes a single mitotic division, then lengthens significantly during development and functions as a chalazal endosperm haustorium. In this paper, immunofluorescent techniques, rhodamine phalloidin assay, and electron microscopy were used to examine the actin and tubulin cytoskeleton during the development of the chalazal haustorium. During the differentiation stage, numerous longitudinally oriented bundles of microfilaments ran along the axis of transvacuolar strands in haustorium. Microtubules formed intensely fluorescent areas near the nuclear envelope and also formed radial perinuclear microtubule arrays. In the fully differentiated haustorium cell, the actin cytoskeleton formed dense clusters of microfilaments on the chalazal and micropylar poles of the haustorium. Numerous microfilament bundles occurred near wall ingrowths on the chalazal wall. There were numerous clusters of microfilaments and microtubules around the huge lobed polytenic haustorial nuclei. The microfilaments were oriented longitudinally to the long axis of the haustorium cell and surrounded both nuclei. The microtubules formed radial perinuclear systems which were appeared to radiate from the surface of the nuclear envelope. The early stage of degeneration of the chalazal haustorium was accompanied by the degradation of microtubules and disruption of the parallel orientation of microtubules in the chalazal area of the cell. The degree of vacuolization increased, autophagous vacuoles appeared and the number of vesicles decreased. 相似文献

The development of the suspensor in two species ?? Sempervivum arachnoideum and Jovibarba sobolifera ?? was investigated using cytochemical methods, light and electron microscopy. Cytological processes of differentiation in the embryo-suspensor were compared with the development of embryo-proper. The mature differentiated suspensor consists of a large basal cell and three to four chalazal cells. The basal cell produces haustorial branched invading ovular tissues. The walls of the haustorium and the micropylar part of the basal cell form the wall ingrowths typical for a transfer cells. The ingrowths also partially cover the lateral wall and the chalazal wall separating the basal cell from the other embryo cells. The dense cytoplasm filling the basal cell is rich in: numerous polysomes lying free or covering rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER), active dictyosomes, microtubules, bundles of microfilaments, microbodies, mitochondria, plastids and lipid droplets. Cytochemical tests (including proteins, insoluble polysaccharides and lipids are distributed in the suspensor during different stages of embryo development) showed the presence of high amounts of macromolecules in the suspensor cells, particularly during the globular and heart-shaped phases of embryo development. The protein bodies and lipid droplets are the main storage products in the cells of the embryo-proper. The results of Auramine 0 indicate that a cuticular material is present only on the surface walls of the embryo-proper, but is absent from the suspensor cell wall. The ultrastructural features and cytochemical tests indicate that in the two species ?? S. arachnoideum and J. sobolifera ?? the embryo-suspensor is mainly involved in the absorption and transport of metabolites from the ovular tissues to the developing embryo-proper. 相似文献

Ovule morphology, embryogenesis and seed development in three Hylocereus species (Cactaceae) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pre-embryonic and embryonic stages and seed developments were studied in the diploids Hylocereus monacanthus and Hylocereus undatus and the tetraploid Hylocereus megalanthus. Ovule morphology was similar among species except for micropyle entrance. H. monacanthus had the thickest and most robust suspensor. Embryo developmental time, measured from fertilization to maturity, was significantly more prolonged in H. megalanthus. Typical to Cactaceae, the seed coat was formed by one layer of sclerenchymatous cells, but was more lignified in H. megalanthus. Morphological features common to all species included (1) cellular type endosperm with independent patterns of development in the chalazal and micropylar zones, forming a haustorium layer from the chalazal zone to the embryo; (2) an endothelial layer surrounding the embryo sac almost complete; (3) a nucellar summit growing into the micropyle; and (4) a placental obturator and a funicle connecting the ovarian tissue to the ovule. Seed development was typically endospermic (exendospermic orthodox seeds). Anomalies included two egg cells in the same embryo sac, two embryos developing in the same ovule, and embryos developing from the chalazal pole region. Total seed number and seed viability were significantly lower in H. megalanthus than in the other two taxa. Embryos at different developmental stages were observed in aborted H. megalanthus seeds. 相似文献

Multinucleate cells play an important role in higher plants, especially during reproduction; however, the configurations of their cytoskeletons, which are formed as a result of mitosis without cytokinesis, have mainly been studied in coenocytes. Previous authors have proposed that in spite of their developmental origin (cell fusion or mitosis without cytokinesis), in multinucleate plant cells, radiating microtubules determine the regular spacing of individual nuclei. However, with the exception of specific syncytia induced by parasitic nematodes, there is no information about the microtubular cytoskeleton in plant heterokaryotic syncytia, i.e. when the nuclei of fused cells come from different cell pools. In this paper, we describe the arrangement of microtubules in the endosperm and special endosperm–placenta syncytia in two Utricularia species. These syncytia arise from different progenitor cells, i.e. cells of the maternal sporophytic nutritive tissue and the micropylar endosperm haustorium (both maternal and paternal genetic material). The development of the endosperm in the two species studied was very similar. We describe microtubule configurations in the three functional endosperm domains: the micropylar syncytium, the endosperm proper and the chalazal haustorium. In contrast to plant syncytia that are induced by parasitic nematodes, the syncytia of Utricularia had an extensive microtubular network. Within each syncytium, two giant nuclei, coming from endosperm cells, were surrounded by a three-dimensional cage of microtubules, which formed a huge cytoplasmic domain. At the periphery of the syncytium, where new protoplasts of the nutritive cells join the syncytium, the microtubules formed a network which surrounded small nuclei from nutritive tissue cells and were also distributed through the cytoplasm. Thus, in the Utricularia syncytium, there were different sized cytoplasmic domains, whose architecture depended on the source and size of the nuclei. The endosperm proper was isolated from maternal (ovule) tissues by a cuticle layer, so the syncytium and chalazal haustorium were the only way for nutrients to be transported from the maternal tissue towards the developing embryo. 相似文献

The development and structure of the chalazal endosperm haustoriumin Cannabis sativa are described. The endosperm is nuclear anda haustorium is formed at the chalazal end. The latter remainsfree nuclear throughout. Enucleate vesicles appear in the upperpart of the endosperm but finally they merge with the cytoplasmof the haustorium. As the embryo reaches maturity it occupiesthe whole seed cavity, the haustorium collapses and the endospermpersists only as a thin layer. 相似文献

InGalanthus nivalis ovules two haploid embryo sacs sometimes occur. One of them originates from the chalazal megaspore, the other from the above-chalazal one. The former is usually fertilized and pushes the latter to the lateral position. 相似文献

Autolysis of the suspensor, an embryonal haustorium, starts in the basal cells and proceeds in the direction of the embryo. InPhaseolus vulgaris, acid phosphatase activity is first found in transforming plastids, similar to the acid phosphatase activity inPh. coccineus [Nagl (1977) Z. Pflanzenphysiol.85, 45–51], although the ultrastructural details are different. InTropaeolum majus, autolysis begins in the most distal part of the suspensor, i.e., the chalazal or carpel haustorium. First the endoplasmic reticulum shows acid phosphatase activity, but neither the mitochondria, which undergo transformation similar to that observed in plastids ofPhaseolus, nor the leucoplasts show such activity. Later, however, the plastids exhibit low activity. Contrarily, the plastids in the suspensor cells adjacent to the embryo show increasing activity during senescence of the suspensor. During final autolysis, activity is found in all cytoplasmic membranes, while it is reduced in plastids. The visible ultrastructural transformations of various organelles into cytolysomes does not necessarily coincide with acid phosphatase activity. Our findings are a further indication of the high diversification and specialization of plastids during plant embryogenesis. 相似文献

Mohan Ram , H. Y. (U. Delhi, India.) The development of the seed in Andrographis serpyllifolia. Amer. Jour. Bot. 47(3) : 215—219. Illus. 1960.–Andrographis serpyllifolia, a member of the Acanthaceae, has an embryo sac with a bifurcated chalazal part. At the time of fertilization both synergids and antipodal cells disintegrate. Early in its development the endosperm is composed of 3 distinct parts: (1) a binucleate densely cytoplasmic chalazal haustorium; (2) a large binucleate micropylar haustorium; and (3) a central chamber which develops into the endosperm proper. The divisions in the central endosperm chamber are ab initio cellular. A few of the endosperm cells elongate enormously, ramify into the integument and destroy the surrounding cells. These cells have been termed secondary haustoria. Due to the unequal destruction of the integument, the endosperm assumes a ruminate condition. The mature seed is nearly naked because the seed coat is almost completely digested. The embryo has a long suspensor. The micropylar cells of the suspensor are hypertrophied and multinucleate. Contrary to Mauritzon's (1934) belief, the course of endosperm development is markedly different from that observed in Thunbergia. So far, albuminous seeds have been reported only in the subfamily Nelsonioideae. The present investigation provides a case of its occurrence in the Acanthoideae also. 相似文献

Imaging of chlorophyll autofluorescence by confocal microscopy in intact whole petals of Arabidopsis thaliana has been used to analyze chloroplast development and redifferentiation during petal development. Young petals dissected from unopened buds contained green chloroplasts throughout their structure, but as the upper part of the petal lamina developed and expanded, plastids lost their chlorophyll and redifferentiated into leukoplasts, resulting in a white petal blade. Normal green chloroplasts remained in the stalk of the mature petal. In epidermal cells the chloroplasts were normal and green, in stark contrast with leaf epidermal cell plastids. In addition, the majority of these chloroplasts had dumbbell shapes, typical of dividing chloroplasts, and we suggest that the rapid expansion of petal epidermal cells may be a trigger for the initiation of chloroplast division. In petals of the Arabidopsis plastid division mutant arc6, the conversion of chloroplasts into leukoplasts was unaffected in spite of the greatly enlarged size and reduced number of arc6 chloroplasts in cells in the petal base, resulting in few enlarged leukoplasts in cells from the white lamina of arc6 petals. 相似文献

Abstract Seed formation involves not only the embryo and endosperm development, but also the formation of a series of either ephemeral or non-ephemeral structures. In this article, we study several of those structures in Cytisus multiflorus and Cytisus striatus. The endosperm development is first nuclear and later cellular, except for the chalazal area, whose development is always nuclear. It generates, in the early developmental stages, a sac-like haustorium. As the seed develops, two structures seem to be closely related to nutrient mobilization to the embryo sac: on the one hand, a group of cells and a channel, located in the chalazal area and closely related between them and to the endosperm haustorium, which could be interpreted as a hypostase and on the other hand, an endothelium, derived from the inner integument, which later degenerates leaving no trace in the mature seed. All of these structures would be associated with the directionality of assimilates from ovule tissues to embryo sac. In mature seed and surrounding the embryo appears a unicellular layer of cells rich in proteins (aleurone layer), which is the origin of the outermost layer of the cellular endosperm. The seed coat is made up only of the outer integument. 相似文献

The floral organogenesis and anatomy of Koelreuteria bipinnata and its variety K. bipinnata var. integrifolia (Sapindaceae) has been investigated to clarify the identity of the two taxa in relation to other species of Koelreuteria, and to understand the shift to monosymmetry in the genus. Although the floral development is highly similar, we found a number of striking differences. Flowers arise in thyrses, with lateral branches forming cincinni of 5–9 flowers. Sepals initiate in a spiral sequence. Five petals arise unidirectionally alternating to the sepals. The last formed petal and one stamen between sepals 3 and 5 are strongly delayed, appearing as a common primordium, while this petal is completely suppressed in var. integrifoliola. Eight stamens initiate sequentially, differ in size and partly precede the development of petals. The gynoecium develops as a triangular primordium on which three carpellary lobes become demarcated simultaneously. Placentation is axile. Septal slits occurring within the style are interpreted as a deep-reaching non-nectariferous extension of the stigma. The massive, oblique disk with crenate apex develops in an extrastaminal position, but is interrupted on the radius of the lost petal. Floral developmental evidence supports variety K. bipinnata var. integrifolia rather than being synonym of K. bipinnata. Floral development is compared with K. paniculata and is discussed in the context of floral evolution of Sapindaceae. Our study demonstrates the importance of developmental shifts on floral evolution. The triangular gynoecium has a strong spatial impact in obliquely reorganizing the symmetry of the flower. It is demonstrated that spatial constraints of calyx and ovary are responsible for the reduction in one of the petals, two stamens and a shift in symmetry of the flower. 相似文献

The changes in the formation of both the actin and the microtubular cytoskeleton during the differentiation of the embryo-suspensor
in Sedum acre were studied in comparison with the development of the embryo-proper. The presence and distribution of the cytoskeletal elements
were examined ultrastructurally and with the light microscope using immunolabelling and rhodamine-phalloidin staining. At
the globular stage of embryo development extensive array of actin filaments is present in the cytoplasm of basal cell, the
microfilament bundles generally run parallel to the long axis of basal cell and pass in close to the nucleus. Microtubules
form irregular bundles in the cytoplasm of the basal cell. A strongly fluorescent densely packed microtubules are present
in the cytoplasmic layer adjacent to the wall separating the basal cell from the first layer of the chalazal suspensor cells.
At the heart-stage of embryo development, in the basal cell, extremely dense arrays of actin materials are located near the
micropylar and chalazal end of the cell. At this stage of basal cell formation, numerous actin filaments congregate around
the nucleus. In the fully differentiated basal cell and micropylar haustorium, the tubulin cytoskeleton forms a dense prominent
network composed of numerous cross-linked filaments. In the distal region of the basal cell, a distinct microtubular cytoskeleton
with numerous microtubules is observed in the cytoplasmic layer adjacent to the wall, separating the basal cell from the first
layer of the chalazal suspensor cells. The role of cytoskeleton during the development of the suspensor in S. acre is discussed. 相似文献

The nucellus of Machaeranthera pattersonii (A. Gray) Greene (Aster pattersonii A. Gray) contains only one megaspore mother cell, and the female gametophyte develops from the chalazal megaspore of a row of four, thus conforming to the Polygonum type of development. These observations are contrary to the older work of Palm. Three nuclear divisions produce the typical eight nuclei with the egg apparatus, primary endosperm cell with two polar nuclei, and two antipodal cells, the micropylar one containing two nuclei. Usually no more antipodal cells are formed, although there is further nuclear division, apparently followed by nuclear fusion. The antipodal cells remain about the same size without forming an antipodal haustorium. Cell division accompanies the first division of the primary endosperm nucleus. The early stages of the embryo resemble those of other Compositae. Machaeranthera tanacetifolia (HBK) Nees also shows the Polygonum type of development of the female gametophyte. It is suggested that Palm may have been working on some species of Erigeron that had been wrongly identified, which would account for the difference in observations. 相似文献

There are seven sessile, campylotropous, discoid ovules in each loculus of the anteroposteriorly flattened bilocular ovary. They are arranged alternately in two rows in each chamber on the axile placenta which is nodular where the ovules are borne. Nucellus degenerates early except at the chalazal end of the curved embryo sac, and the inntermost layer of the integument functions as endothelium. The aggressive, multinucleate micropylar haustorium grows as a tubular body through the micropylar canal and ramifies in the placenta while the two-nucleate chalazal haustorium creates a large space by digesting a good deal of the chalazal tissue. Endosperm is differentiated into three regions: the middle storage, the haustorial micropylar, and the chalazal. Thickness of the integument is considerably added to by the endothelium and by its surrounding meristematic zone of the integument. There are two prominent wings on the dorsal and smaller ones on the lateral faces of the cochlidiospermous seed, its ventral face being occupied by a prominent basal body. A heavily cutinized envelope, formed by the endothelium, surrounds the ovoid storage endosperm. Testa of the seed is mainly composed of the thickened epidermis and the endothelium. The micropylar and the chalazal parts of the endosperm become tanniferous and serve to plug the two ends of the seed. Embryo is straight, and it bears two cotyledons and two plumular leaves. 相似文献

Correlated variation in shape and size (allometry) is a major component of natural diversity. We examined the evolutionary and genetic basis for allometry using leaves and flower petals of snapdragon species (Antirrhinum). A computational method was developed to capture shape and size variation in both types of organ within the Antirrhinum species group. The results show that the major component of variation between species involves positively correlated changes in leaf and petal size. The correlation was maintained in an F2 population derived from crossing two species with organs of different sizes, suggesting that developmental constraints were involved. Identification of the underlying genes as quantitative trait loci revealed that the larger species carried alleles that increased organ size at all loci. Although this was initially taken as evidence that directional selection has driven diversity in both leaf and petal size, simulations revealed that evolution without consistent directional selection, an undirected walk, could also account for the parental distribution of organ size alleles. 相似文献

The objective of this research was to provide data for a taxonomic evaluation of Pholistoma and for a later survey of evolutionary morphology within the tribe Hydrophylleae. The unilocular ovary bears specialized unicellular prickles. Ovary and capsule wall consist of five or seven cell layers, of which three develop thickened walls for protection and dehiscence. Two parietal placentae enlarge to fill the entire locule. The four to eight ovules per ovary, some of which degenerate, are irregularly ventral and half-epitropous to half-hypotropous. Each ovule is tenuinucellate, unitegmic, and anatropous with a feeble vascular strand. A large amount of ovular parenchyma is produced from two meristems, one of which is the integumentary tapetum. Cells of the ovular epidermis grow into giant cells, each with a tubular portion penetrating deep into the seed interior, thereby producing a most unusual seed coat. The embryo sac is of the Polygonum type, the embryo of the Onagrad type. The endosperm is cellular with a micropylar and a chalazal endosperm haustorium. Both haustoria produce lateral branches. The mature endosperm is porously pitted, due to the giant cells of the testa. Great similarity between the three Pholistoma species, and in particular the presence in all species of two lateral haustorium branches, of gigantic, funnel-shaped epidermal cells, and of a porously pitted endosperm, strongly supports the notion that these three species constitute a natural entity. 相似文献
