真核生物的叶绿体一般具有一定的典型的结构和功能。然而,在单细胞的原生生物中却不断发现结构与功能均与典型叶绿体明显不同的质体(叶绿体),如不具核形体的多层膜质体、具核形体的多层膜质体、具有最小基因组的质体等,表现出质体的丰富多样性。本文概要地介绍了单细胞原生生物中这些非典型的质体,并对形成这种多样性的主要原因,即这些生物的质体在进化过程中发生的一次、二次和三次内共生事件进行了分析探讨。 相似文献

The ultrastructure of the plastids from the genetically caused but maternally transmitted mutant iojap of maize was studied at four stages of development. The plastids of green and potentially green tissue were normal at all stages studied. The plastids of the white tissue were aberrant at all stages studied and lacked the normal grana-fretwork system as well as a normal prolamellar body. DNA-like fibrils were present in aberrant plastids, but ribosomes were absent. This indicates that chloroplast ribosomes are important in chloroplast membrane formation. Aberrant plastids fail to develop normally and are not a degeneration of normal plastids. Aberrant and normal plastids occur in single cells in green tissue, but only aberrant plastids have been found in white tissue. 相似文献

It is generally accepted that peridinin-containing dinoflagellate plastids are derived from red alga, but whether they are
secondary plastids equivalent to plastids of stramenopiles, haptophytes, or cryptophytes, or are tertiary plastids derived
from one of the other secondary plastids, has not yet been completely resolved. As secondary plastids, plastid gene phylogeny
should mirror that of nuclear genes, while incongruence in the two phylogenies should be anticipated if their origin was as
tertiary plastids. We have analyzed the phylogeny of plastid-encoded genes from Lingulodinium as well as that of nuclear-encoded dinoflagellate homologues of plastid-encoded genes conserved in all other plastid genome
sequences. Our analyses place the dinoflagellate, stramenopile, haptophyte, and cryptophyte plastids firmly in the red algal
lineage, and in particular, the close relationship between stramenopile plastid genes and their dinoflagellate nuclear-encoded
homologues is consistent with the hypothesis that red algal-type plastids have arisen only once in evolution. 相似文献

Summary Genetic studies have demonstrated biparental inheritance of plastids in alfalfa. The ratio of paternal to maternal plastids in the progeny varies according to the genotypes of the parents, which can be classified as strong or weak transmitters of plastids. Previous cytological investigations of generative cells and male gametes have provided no consistent explanation for plastid inheritance patterns among genotypes. However, plastids in the mature egg cells of a strong female genotype (6–4) were found to be more numerous and larger than in mature eggs of a weak female genotype (CUF-B), and the plastids in 6–4 eggs are positioned equally around the nucleus. In CUF-B, the majority of plastids are positioned below (toward the micropyle) the mid level of the nucleus, which is the future division plane of the zygote. Since only the apical portion of the zygote produces the embryo proper, plastids in the basal portion were predicted to become included in the suspensor cells and not be inherited. In the present study, we examined zygotes and a two-celled proembryo from a cross between CUF-B and a strong male genotype (301), a cross that results in over 90% of the progeny possessing paternal plastids only. Our results indicate that the distribution of plastids observed in the CUF-B egg cell is maintained through the first division of the zygote. Further, paternal plastids are similarly distributed; however, within the apical portion of the zygote and in the apical cell of the two-celled proembryo, the number of paternal plastids is typically much greater than the number of maternal plastids. These findings suggest that maternal and paternal plastid distribution within the zygote is a significant factor determining the inheritance of maternal and paternal plastids in alfalfa. 相似文献

Developmental studies of Opuntia basilaris Engelm. & Bigel. leaves revealed the presence of three morphologically distinct types of plastids. All epidermal cells examined contained chloroplasts. After 13 days of growth in the dark the plastids of epidermal and mesophyll cells were characterized by the presence of a prolamellar body and fibril inclusions. Epidermal plastids which developed under light conditions contained large stromacentres and a limited grana-fret membrane system. Guard cell plastids developed under similar conditions had a much poorer developed grana system with fibril inclusions apparent only during the developmental stages. At maturity these plastids appeared swollen or dilated. Mesophyll plastids had fibril inclusions during all stages of development and at maturity contained a very extensive grana-fret membrane system. Microbodies were found in association with the mesophyll plastids. Starch accumulation was common in subsidiary cell and guard cell plastids. 相似文献

Chlorarachniophyta are phototrophic amoeboflagellates, with plastids surrounded by four membranes. Contrary to other plastids of this type which occur in chromists, their outermost membrane bears no ribosomes. It is argued that the nuclear-encoded chlorarachniophyte plastid proteins are first transported into the ER, then to the Colgi apparatus, and finally to the plastids. The same import mechanism could be originally present in the chromist ancestor, prior to the fusion of their plastids with the RER membranes. According to the most recent concept, the complex plastids of Chromista and Chlorarachniophyta have evolved through replacement of the cyanobacterial plastids. The assumption that these plastids had an envelope composed not of two, but of three membranes makes it possible to avoid the erlier discerned difficulties with conversion of a eukaryotic alga into a complex plastid. My scenario provides an additional support to the hypothesis on polyphy-letic origin of four-membraned plastids. 相似文献

The inheritance pattern of mutant white plastids was studied in W × W crosses, in which one mutant was highly stable (Ws) and the other unstable (Wu) owing to the spontaneous restitution (mutation) of white plastids to a new green form. Thirty-six selfs and crosses were made within and between three nuclear type I cultivars, transmitting the unstable plastids, and three nuclear type II cultivars, transmitting the stable plastids. The allelic frequencies of the restituted plastids among the progeny were subjected to an analysis of variance which showed that within each nuclear type the three cultivars were rather similar except for some heterogeneity after Ws × Wu plastid crosses. The relative average transmission of the two mutant plastids in these W × W crosses was estimated and compared with their individual transmission in reciprocal crosses in which one parent contained green plastids. In the latter crosses, the green plastids were superior to the mutant plastids and the unstable plastid mutant was only slightly more successful than the stable mutant. But when the mutant plastids competed against each other, the unstable mutant became greatly superior to the stable mutant and comparable to a green normal plastid. A model to explain these results is discussed. 相似文献

Comparisons of the ultrastructure of plastids in three kinds of variegated leaves of tomato plants were made. No difference
in the structure and development of chloroplasts in normal green leaves and in the green tissue of variegated leaves was found.
The albescent tissues of chromosomal genetic variegated leaves contained only aberrant plastids, which were amoeboid or cup-shaped
and had large vacuoles in the stroma. Ribosomes were absent from all plastids in this kind of variegated leaves. Three types
of plastids, i.e. chloroplasts containing grana, chloroplasts lacking grana, and plastids lacking internal membranes, were
present in the pale green tissues of the variegated leaves of extrachromosomal genetic tomato mutants. Depending on the distribution
of these plastids, five cell types were observed in these tissues. Ribosomes were present in all plastids in this type of
variegated leaves. In the albescent tissues of variegated leaves induced by streptomycin treatment, two kinds of plastids
were observed, one containing giant grana and the other lacking organized internal membranes. A common feature of plastids
in this albescent tissue was the presence of light stainable ribosomes. It was suggested that the development of variegated
leaves may be caused by blocking an early stage of plastid development.

The ribsome-deficient plastids of the albino leaves of the barley mutant albostrians divide at about the same rate as normal plastids and contain similar levels of plastids DNA to the normal plastids. Double-ring structures were observed around the neck of constricting dumbbell-shaped, ribosome-deficient plastids in the basal intercalary meristem of albino leaves. In the distal region of albino leaves the ribosome-deficient plastids contain a rudimentary thylakoid system often closely associated with DNA nucleoids. It is suggested that nuclear coded proteins synthesized within the cytoplasm are responsible for the formation of the double-ring structures and the rudimentary thylakoids of albino plastids. 相似文献

Electron microscopic investigation has demonstrated that plastids and mitochondria are conserved in the generative cell, sperm cells and egg cell of Pelargonium hortorum Bailey. The plastids in the generative cell which contain starch for a short period, gradually changed to proplastids during the maturation of generative cell. The plastids in the sperm cells are large and numerous the characteristics of dense matrix and an abundant endomembrane systems. These plastids always appear ringlike in cross section. In the generative cell and sperms, the spherical or rod-shaped mitochondria are smaller than the.plastids and remain unchanged during the development process from generative cell to sperm cells. DNA filaments are visualized in the transparent central zone of the mitochondria. In the egg cell, plastids are more abundant than mitochondria. The structures of the plastids and mitochondria are obviously different from those in the sperm cell. Most of the plastids are irregularly rod-shaped and contain starch, the mitochondria are about 3 times larger than those in the sperm cells. Most of them are cup-shaped as proved by successive sections. DNA epifluorescence study demonstrated that DNA nucleoids are present in both plastids and mitochondria of the egg, generative cell and sperm cells. In the sperm cells, there is no ringlike DNA nucleoid as is existed in the egg cell. This study has defined the characteristics of the plastids and mitochondria in both male and female gemates of P. hortorurn. The results are essential contributions for further investigation of the biparental organelle transmission in the zygote and proembryo. 相似文献

The dinoflagellate Lepidodinium chlorophorum possesses "green" plastids containing chlorophylls a and b (Chl a+b), unlike most dinoflagellate plastids with Chl a+c plus a carotenoid peridinin (peridinin-containing plastids). In the present study we determined 8 plastid-encoded genes from Lepidodinium to investigate the origin of the Chl a+b-containing dinoflagellate plastids. The plastid-encoded gene phylogeny clearly showed that Lepidodinium plastids were derived from a member of Chlorophyta, consistent with pigment composition. We also isolated three different glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) genes from Lepidodinium-one encoding the putative cytosolic "GapC" enzyme and the remaining two showing affinities to the "plastid-targeted GapC" genes. In a GAPDH phylogeny, one of the plastid-targeted GapC-like sequences robustly grouped with those of dinoflagellates bearing peridinin-containing plastids, while the other was nested in a clade of the homologues of haptophytes and dinoflagellate genera Karenia and Karlodinium bearing "haptophyte-derived" plastids. Since neither host nor plastid phylogeny suggested an evolutionary connection between Lepidodinium and Karenia/Karlodinium, a lateral transfer of a plastid-targeted GapC gene most likely took place from a haptophyte or a dinoflagellate with haptophyte-derived plastids to Lepidodinium. The plastid-targeted GapC data can be considered as an evidence for the single origin of plastids in haptophytes, cryptophytes, stramenopiles, and alveolates. However, in the light of Lepidodinium GAPDH data, we need to closely examine whether the monophyly of the plastids in the above lineages inferred from plastid-targeted GapC genes truly reflects that of the host lineages. 相似文献

Like most angiosperms, wheat (Triticum aestivum) shows maternal inheritance of plastids. It is thought that this takes place by cytoplasmic stripping at fertilisation rather than the absence of plastids in sperm cells. To determine the fate of plastids during sperm cell development, plastid-targeted green fluorescent protein was used to visualise these organelles in nuclear transgenic wheat lines. Fewer than thirty small 1–2-μm plastids were visible in early uninucleate pollen cells. These dramatically increased to several hundred larger (4 μm) plastids during pollen maturation and went through distinct morphological changes. Only small plastids were visible in generative cells (n?=?25) and young sperm cells (n?=?9). In mature sperm cells, these green fluorescent protein (GFP)-tagged plastids were absent. This is consistent with maternal inheritance of plastids resulting from their degradation in mature sperm cells in wheat. 相似文献

Plastid inheritance was followed during sexual reproduction in the raphid pennate diatom Pseudo-nitzschia delicatissima, using rbcL haplotypes as plastid identification tools. Pseudo-nitzschia species are dioecious and show functional anisogamy with 'male' mating type+(PNd(+)) cells and 'female' PNd(-) cells. Vegetative cells possess two plastids. In P. delicatissima, meiosis results in two gametes that both contribute two plastids to the zygote. The latter initially contains four plastids, but during auxospore development two of these four seem to disappear, and the initial cell emerging from the auxospore appears to contain only two. Here we assessed if the plastids are inherited strictly unipaternally, strictly biparentally, or randomly. We traced the source of the plastids in the F(1) generation by using PNd(+) and PNd(-) parental strains with different rbcL genotypes, here denoted AA (homoplastidial, with two plastids of rbcL haplotype A) and BB (homoplastidial; two plastids of haplotype B). Results showed that 16 out of 96 strains raised each from single F(1) cells had retained two paternal (PNd(+)) plastids, 20 had two maternal (PNd(-)) plastids and the remaining 60 had one maternal and one paternal plastid. This pattern is in accordance with the hypothesis that either two of the four plastids are eliminated during auxospore formation, or that all plastids are retained in the auxospore and segregate in pairs joining at random during the first mitotic division of the initial cell. Heteroplastidic F(1)-strains retained the AB genotype throughout the vegetative phase of their life cycle. The finding that 60 out of 96 F(1) strains were heteroplastidial contrasts with an absence of such genotypes in our strains raised from single cells sampled in the Gulf of Naples. 相似文献

The distribution of S-type and P-type plastids in the sieve elements of 30 species from 13 families of theConiferophytina andCycadophytina is recorded, of which 21 species were studied for the first time with respect to their sieve-element plastids. While starch storing S-type plastids are the most commonly occurring type throughout both taxa, all thePinaceae examined (11 species of 7 genera) contain P-type plastids characterized by a peripheral, ring-shaped bundle of protein filaments, an additional protein crystalloid, and several starch grains. Starch grains of sieve-element plastids in theConiferophytina andCycadophytina are commonly club-shaped. Taxonomic implications of these ultrastructural findings on sieve-element plastids are discussed. 相似文献

In order to determine whether the enzymes required to convert triose phosphate to acetyl CoA were present in pea (Pisum sativum L.) seed plastids, a rapid, mechanical technique was used to isolate plastids from developing cotyledons. The plastids were intact and the extraplastidial contamination was low. The following glycolytic enzymes, though predominantly cytosolic, were found to be present in plastids: glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), and pyruvate kinase(EC 2.7.1.40). Evidence is presented which indicates that plastids also contained low activities of enolase (EC 4.2.1.11) and phosphoglycerate mutase (EC 2.7.5.3). Pyruvate dehydrogenase, although predominantly mitochondrial, was also present in plastids. The plastidial activities of the above enzymes were high enough to account for the rate of lipid synthesis observed in vivo.Abbreviations FPLC

The occurrence of RNA in plastids from etiolated and green maize leaves was demonstrated cytochemically, with both the light and the electron microscope. Etiolated leaves were allowed to incorporate tritiated cytidine for several hours and were subsequently fixed in formalin. Radioautographs of leaf sections 2 µ thick showed silver grains over the regions of the cytoplasm containing plastids. Plastids in these sections appeared intensely basophilic when stained with azure B. Both the basophilia and radioactivity were removable with ribonuclease, clearly demonstrating the occurrence of RNA in these organelles. Examination under the electron microscope of similar plastids which had been fixed in formalin revealed a particulate component in the plastid measuring approximately 170 A in diameter. This particulate component was completely removable with ribonuclease. Thus,it was concluded that RNA occurs in a particulate form in plastids from etiolated leaves. Mature plastids, when stained with azure B, did not appear basophilic under the light microscope. Nevertheless, when formalin-fixed tissues were examined with the electron microscope, the mature plastids were seen to contain particles in the stroma, identical in appearance with those visible in the plastids in etiolated leaves. Osmium tetroxide-fixed tissues were also examined with the electron microscope. Particles similar to those seen in plastids fixed with formalin were observed, although the results obtained with this fixative were variable. It is concluded that plastids from etiolated and green maize leaves contain RNA in a particulate form which resembles ribosomes. 相似文献
