Potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L) were planted in pots in a temperature-controlledglasshouse to collect data on the rate of leaf apearance, leafexpansion, apical lateral branching and active life spans ofleaves The treatments consisted of three rates of nitrogen supply,i e the NI treatment with 2 5 g N per pot and the N2 and N3treatments with 8 and 16 g N per pot, respectively The rate of leaf appearance was 0·53 leaves d1(one leaf per 28 °C d) and was negligibly affected by nitrogensupply The rate of leaf expansion was related to leaf numberand nitrogen supply The areas of mature leaves increased withleaf number on the main stem to reach a maximum for leaf numbers1214, and declined for higher leaf numbers Leaves onapical lateral branches declined in mature area with increasein leaf number The expansion rate of leaves was the dominantfactor that determined the mature leaf area, irrespective ofleaf number and nitrogen treatment The smallest leaves wereobserved at the lowest rate of nitrogen supply Nitrogen promotedapical branching and hence the total number of leaves that appearedon a plant The proportion of total leaf area contributed byleaves on apical branches increased with time and nitrogen supply Active life span, i e the period of time between leaf appearanceand yellowing of the leaf, showed a similar relation to leafnumber as mature leaf area, at least in qualitative terms Leavesof the N3 treatment showed systematically longer life spansthan leaves of the NI and N2 treatment in the order of 3 weeksThe number of main stem leaves was not affected by nitrogensupply Potato, Solanum tuberosum L, leaf development, leaf extension, plant structure, nitrogen nutrition 相似文献

In plants held under long days in the vegetative stage, youngexpanding leaves of poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd.Brilliant Diamond) are the main source of axillarybud inhibition, while the apical bud, which includes the meristem,primordial leaves and small unfolded leaves, is a secondaryinhibition source. Removal of these expanding leaves resultedin rapid release and growth of axillary buds. Decapitation ofthe apical bud resulted in delayed axillary bud release. Inreproductive plants kept in short days, the pigmented bractsare the primary source of axillary bud inhibition and the cyathiaare the secondary source. Applications of NAA substitutedfor both young leaves and bract inhibition maintainedapical dominance. The concentration of endogenous auxin washighest in the apical bud. However, when calculated on wholeorgan basis the auxin level was greater in young developingvegetative leaves and in reproductive bracts than in the apicalbud.

An account is given of experiments in which young primordiaand primordium sites at the apex of Dryopteris aristata wereisolated basally and laterally by undercutting and deep radialincisions. The treatments had the effect of destroying or severingthe incipient vascular tissue underlying the primordium on itsabaxial and lateral sides. Provided the shoot apex had not beendamaged during treatment, neither buds nor centric (or radial)leaves were induced as a result of the experimental procedureemployed. On the contrary leaves with distended bases, showingan abnormally rapid rate of growth, were usually produced. Theresults obtained are against the view that a leaf-trace, differentiatingacropetally in advance, determines the formation of a primordium;but they support the thesis that the apical cell group exercisesa regulative effect on the growth and morphogenetic activitiesof the apical meristem and young primordia. The evidence alsosupports the view that the incipient vascular tissue is importantin morphogenesis in that it affords a pathway for the translocationof nutrients and hormonal substances. 相似文献

Changes in DNA content of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) primaryleaves after decapitation were investigated. When apical budswere removed at 11 d, DNA content per leaf increased by about20% at 15 d and then decreased in parallel with the controls.The RNA and chlorophyll contents, fresh weight, and leaf areaexpressed on a single leaf basis changed in the same manneras the DNA content in response to decapitation. But when bothapical and lateral buds were removed, all these values continuedincreasing during the test period. Thus, growing lateral budsand apical buds have the same effect on the DNA change in primaryleaves as that due to ageing of the leaves. Cell number perleaf was not increased by any treatment, indicating that theobserved increase in the DNA content of primary leaves is ascribableto an increase in DNA per cell. Next, the whole shoots above the nodes of primary leaves wereremoved at various ages. The response of primary leaves to decapitationvaried according to their age. With age, they lost the abilityto increase their fresh weight, area, and chlorophyll contentbut not their DNA and RNA contents in response to decapitation.Decapitation stimulated chloroplast replication only withinthe period in which chloroplasts were replicating in controlleaves, but it induced chloroplast enlargement at any age. Therefore,the increase in DNA content after decapitation may be partiallydue to an increase in the amount of chloroplast DNA. When stems were heat-girdled above the nodes of the primaryleaves, these leaves showed responses similar to but smallerthan those to decapitation. The senescence of primary leavesseems to be controlled by the distribution of substances whichare transported from the roots. 相似文献

Six-week-old Lolium temulentum cv. Ceres plants were inducedto flower by a single long day (Day 1). Cell proliferation wasanalysed in the apex during the period extending from Day 1to Day 3. A stimulation of mitotic and DNA synthetic activitieswas observed in the apical summit at 8 h of the photoextensionperiod of the LD, i.e. before any apparent movement of the floralstimulus out of the leaves and well in advance of apex evocation.

A controlled environment experiment investigated whether thered:far-red (R:FR) ratio of light at the apical bud of the mainstolon could alter plant morphogenesis in clonal cuttings ofwhite clover (Trifolium repens L.) The apical bud included theapical meristem, five to six developing leaf primordia withassociated axillary bud primordia and stipules and the firstemerged folded leaf until development was greater than 0·3on the Carlson scale. Three light regimes were imposed on theapical bud by collimating light from R or FR light-emittingdiodes so that the R:FR ratio of light incident at the apicalbud was set at 0·25, 1·6 or 2·1, withoutsignificantly altering photosynthetically active radiation.The effect of these light regimes on white clover seedling growthwas also tested. At a low R:FR ratio seedling hypocotyl and cotyledon lengthswere significantly longer. However, with the cuttings, the lighttreatments did not alter node appearance rate or internode lengthof the main stolon, petiole length, area of leaves or totalshoot dry matter. There was one significant photomorphogeneticresponse in the cuttings, a delay of 0·5 of a phyllochronin the appearance of branches from axillary buds in the lowR:FR ratio treatment relative to the other treatments. Wherebranch appearance was delayed plants had fewer branches. Thisdifference could be ascribed solely to a delay in branch appearanceas there were no significant treatment effects on either theinitiation of axillary bud primordia within the apical bud,the probability of branching or on the rate of growth of branchesafter appearance. Because treatment of the apical bud inducedonly one of the many previously observed responses of whiteclover to a decrease in the R:FR ratio of light, we concludethat other plant organs must also sense the quality of incidentlight.Copyright 1994, 1999 Academic Press White clover, Trifolium repens, apical bud, light quality, red:far-red ratio, light-emitting diode, branching, axillary buds, photomorphogenesis 相似文献

The influence of the shoot apex upon leaf and bud formationin the fern Dryopteris aristata has been investigated by furtherexperiments on puncturing the apical cell. When the apical cellgroup is damaged, leaf primordia, which may be orientated abnormally,continue to be formed on the meristem, but one or more budsmay also arise. The observations reported here indicate thata zone at the periphery of the apical meristem is particularlyreactive when the apical cell group is damaged, the majorityof buds being induced in this region. The extent of damage tothe apex may affect the sequence of organogenesis: when damageis extensive buds tend to be formed immediately, subsequentprimordia developing as leaves; when the damage is confinedto the apical cell, or extends to only a few of its segments,bud formation tends to be delayed. It is concluded that the effect of the apical cell on organformation is exercised through the growth and organization ofthe apex as a whole. 相似文献

Changes in Apical Growth and Phyllotaxis on Flowering and Reversion in Impatiens balsamina L. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
When plants of Impatiens balsamina L were subjected to 5 shortdays and then re-placed in long days, they began to form a terminalflower and then reverted to vegetative growth at this terminalshoot apex The onset of flowering was accompanied by an increasein the rate of initiation of primordia, an increase in the growthrate of the apex, a change in primordium arrangement from spiralto whorled or pseudo-whorled, a lack of internodes, and a reductionm the size at initiation of the primordia and also of the stemfrusta which give rise to nodal and internodal tissues On reversion,parts intermediate between petals and leaves were formed, followedby leaves, although in reverted apices the size at initiationand the arrangement of primordia remained the same as in thefloweing apex The apical growth rate and the rate of primordiuminitiation were less in the reverted apices than in floral apicesbut remained higher than in the original vegetative apex Sincethe changes in apical growth which occur on the transition toflowering are not reversed on reversion, the development oforgans as leaves or petals is not directly related to the growthrate of the apex, or the arrangement, rate of initiation orsize at initiation of primordia Impatiens balsamina L, flower reversion, evocation, phyllotaxis, shoot meristem 相似文献

The outgrowth of lateral buds is known to be controlled by theupper shoot tissues, which include the apex, the young leavesand the upper stem. An analysis of the influence of these plantparts on axillary bud elongation in Ipomoea nil was carriedout by various treatments on these specific tissues. A restriction of elongation in the main shoot due to eitherdecapitation or shoot inversion resulted in the release of apicaldominance A non-linear type of compensating growth relationshipwas observed between the 13 cm apical growing region of thestem and the lateral buds. It was determined by decapitation,defoliation and AgNO3 treatments that both the 13 cm stem-growthregion and the young leaves (15 cm in length) had a muchgreater inhibitory influence on the outgrowth of specified lateralbuds than did the stem apex (consisting of the terminal 0.5cm of the shoot). The specified lateral buds which were analyzedfor outgrowth were located a number of nodes below the shootapex. The intervening nodes were debudded. Although the importanceof young leaves in the control of apical dominance has beenpreviously recognized, the most significant result from thepresent study with Ipomoea was the strong influence of the 13cm apical growth region of the stem on the out growth of thelateral buds.

Pseudowhorls are composed of leaves attached at almost equallevels and separated by single fully elongated internodes. InPeperomiaverticillata, pseudowhorls form regularly in shoots exhibitingboth spiral and truly whorled patterns of phyllotaxis. In spiralsystems, they are composed of successive leaves positioned onthe ontogenetic helix. In whorled phyllotaxis, leaves of twoadjacent whorls occur at almost the same level and this wayform a pseudowhorl. The number of leaves per pseudowhorl dependson the type of phyllotactic pattern and also the system of primordiapacking. In all the shoots, regardless of the type of phyllotaxis,the number of leaves per pseudowhorl equals the number of leafprimordia in physical contact with the apical dome. It is thesame as the higher number in contact parastichy pairs in spiralpatterns or the number of orthostichies in whorled phyllotaxis.The pseudowhorled pattern is already manifested in the arrangementof leaf primordia. In spiral and whorled phyllotaxis the plastochronratio calculated for primordia or whorls belonging to adjacentpseudowhorls is always higher than that calculated for membersof one pseudowhorl. Moreover, angular distances between primordiaof one pseudowhorl in spiral patterns are more uniform thanexpected in Fibonacci phyllotaxis. These observations were madeon plants both growing in pots and culturedin vitro. 6-Benzylaminopurine,a synthetic cytokinin, added to the medium increases the meannumber of leaves per pseudowhorl. It seems that this effectis indirect: phyllotaxis changes first rather than the destinyof a particular internode in a process of selective elongation.Copyright1999 Annals of Botany Company Peperomia verticillata, pseudowhorls, phyllotaxis, shoot apex. 相似文献

The growth rate of the stem of Agropyron repens (L.) Beauv.begins to decline when the sixth foliage leaf has expanded butthe relative growth rate declines throughout the period betweenthe production of one and ten mature leaves. On an absolutetime scale there is a progressive decline in growth rate ofsuccessively formed stem (node-internode) units. On a plastochronscale the relative growth rate of successive stem units declineswithin the apical region but increases behind the apex. Thedecline in the apical region is related to a decrease in therate of cell division and in the later formed stem units thereis no significant increase in cell number from the time of theirformation by the apex until the internode is initiated duringtheir fourth plastochron. These changes are related to concurrentchanges in the size of the shoot apex and in rates of leaf growth. 相似文献

Shoot apex, leaf and stem growth parameters for four speciesof deciduous trees were measured. Only in elm was there a correlationbetween the size of shoot apical meristems and mature leaves.In ash, basswood and cottonwood there was no significant differencebetween size of shoot apices of sucker and canopy branches,despite significant differences in lamina size. In the suckerbranches of all species studied there occurred an early, lateralexpansion of the subapical region of the shoot apical meristem.This correlated well with the greater diameter of stem and pithregions of sucker branches. In addition, the season's annualring of xylem was greater in basswood, cottonwood and elm. Diametersof vessel elements were greater in sucker than canopy branchesin three of the four species. Total branch and internode andnumber of nodes per branch were significantly greater for suckerbranches than canopy growth of all species studied. A hypothesis is proposed to explain the development of the verylarge surface area of leaves on sucker branches. This hypothesisis based on the position of sucker branches in relation to theroot system and involves differences in water stress known tobe present in all plants.Copyright 1993, 1999 Academic Press Sucker leaves, canopy leaves, Fraxìnus pennsylvanica Marsh, green ash, Ulmus amerìcana L., American elm, Populus deltoides Marsh, cottonwood, Tilia americana, basswood 相似文献

Angle meristems are mounds of meristematic tissue located atdorsal and/or ventral branch points of the dichotomising stemaxes of many species of Selaginella (Lycophyta). The presentstudy examined the development of ventral angle shoots of S.martensii in response to removal of distal shoot apices (decapitation).Scanning electron microscopy of sequential replicas of developingangle meristems and angle shoots revealed that for the firsttwo pseudowhorls of leaf primordia, particular leaves are notattributable to particular merophytes of the angle meristemapical cell. Individual leaf primordia of the first (outer)pseudowhorl often form from more than one merophyte. Neitherthe shape of the angle meristem apical cell nor the directionof segmentation has any effect on the development of the angleshoot. Additionally, the apical cell of the angle meristem doesnot necessarily contribute directly to either of the new shootapices of the developing angle shoot. The first bifurcationof the angle shoot shows a remarkably consistent relationshipto the branching pattern of the parent shoot. The strong branchof the first angle shoot bifurcation typically occurs towardthe weak side branch of the parent shoot. Anatomical studiesshowed that bifurcation of the young angle shoot involved theformation of two new growth centres some distance away fromthe original angle meristem apical cell; new apical cells subsequentlyformed within these. These results provide additional supportfor the view that cell lineage has little or no effect on finalform or structure in plants.Copyright 1994, 1999 Academic Press Selaginella martensii Spring, Lycophyta, angle meristem, apical cell, shoot apical meristem, leaf primordium, branching, dichotomy, morphogenesis, determination, competence, development, mould and cast technique, replica technique, scanning electron microscopy 相似文献

Partitioning of 14C-Assimilate Between Sources and Sinks in the Monopodial Orchid Aranda Tay Swee Eng 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Aranda Tay Swee Eng, an orchid hybrid with monopodial growthhabit, has a highly integrated source-sink assimilate partitioningpattern. The current inflorescence receives assimilate frommany rather than a few leaves, the vegetative apical shoot competeswith the inflorescence for assimilate supply in the upper shoot,and the fully-expanded leaves themselves constitute a majorsink for assimilate. Implications of these findings for improvementof harvestable yield in monopodial orchids are discussed.

In an attempt to shed new light on the nature of microphyllsand macrophylls, a study has been made of leaf inception inselected materials, including Psilotum, Tmesipteris and otherpteridophytes, and flowering plants such as Cuscuta with greatlyreduced leaves. It is shown that the incipientprimordia of the small scale-like leaves of Psilotum and ofthe quite substantial, though microphyllous, laminate leavesof Tmesipteris are closely comparable and that there are noessential differences in the histological organization of incipientmicrophylls and incipient macrophylls. In parasitic speciessuch as Cuscuta, with small scale-like leaves, the organizationof the apical meristem and the inception of primordia are asin normal autotrophic species. The so-called reducedleaves and the microphyllous condition of some pteridophytesare attributable to a physiological-genetical limitation ofgrowth of primordia in the subapical regions of the shoot. Theconclusions which may be drawn from these observations are discussed. 相似文献

Characteristic opal phytolith (silica body) formationwas demonstrated in detached leaves of Sieglingia decumbens(Heath Grass), cultured in 100 ppm dissolved silicon (silicondioxide), previously, the leaves were free from intracellulardeposits as a result of silica-minimal tiller growth. The formertechnique allowed the study of the leaf deposition processesindependently of apical and root tissues, under growth-cabinetand glasshouse conditions. Deposition in excised leaves wascompletely suppressed by a surface, monomolecular coating, thusindicating that total net water loss was a limiting factor,however, evaporation from the recipient, epidermal tissues perse was not a requirement for this in situ deposition Generally,apart from an apparent, cell site shift in one treatment, phytolith-formationwas unaffected by the presence of the metabolic inhibitor 2,4-dinitrophenol. Also, some evidence was obtained of the influxof germanium dioxide into epidermal ldioblasts, which indicateda non-specificity of the host cell for silica. These results and those of earlier studies suggest that passive,non-metabolic mechanisms could account for the transport, influx,and cell lumen polymerization of silica in the grass leaf. 相似文献

1. An investigation was made into effect of daylength conditionsof the inhibition content of first-year seedlings of sycamore(Acer pseudoplatanus). 2. The shoot apical regions and mature leaves were extractedwith 80 per cent. Aqueous methanol, fractionated by paper chromatographyin isopropanol/ammonia and assayed by the wheat-coleptile growthtest. 3. A growth inhibitor was present in all extracts at Rf 0.7.Higher levels of inhibitor were present in both apices and matureleaves of plants transferred to short-day conditions than ofthose maintained under long-days throughout. 4. These difference in inhibitor level can be detected after25 days of short-day treatment, Preceding any markedeffect of daylength on growth. 5. Evidence is adduced in support of the hypothesis that theinhibitors is produced in the leaves during darkness and istransported to the apex during the photoperiod. 相似文献

Torosa-2 (to-2), a tomato mutant with strong apical dominance,was studied in order to determine the mechanism of shoot outgrowthcontrol. In decapitated or defoliated to-2 plants only a fewshoots grew and IAA or morphactin application had little oronly short term effects. No differences were found in auxinand cytokinin activities between normal and mutant plants upto 20 days after sowing. In the period from 40 to 90 days theIAA content increased equally in both genotypes. During thesame period, however, cytokinin increased only in normal plants.The results obtained with the to-2 mutant indicate that budsdo not shoot, probably because bud differentiation does notoccur. The ratio of auxin to cytokinin clearly was affectedby the low level of cytokinin in all tissues of the to-2 plants.This led us to the conclusion that insufficient quantities ofcytokinin for lateral bud differentiation is the cause of thestrong apical dominance in to-2.

In order to quantify the structural differences between celltypes of leaves from a window plant, an ultrastructuralmorphometric analysis was made of the epidermal, window andchlorenchyma tissues of Frithia pulchra. Epidermal cells arethe largest cells found in Frithia leaves and are characterizedby the presence of a thick outer tangential cell wall and numerousvacuolar inclusions. Epidermal tissue has an optical densityof 0.30. The transparent window tissue (i.e. optical density= 0.08) has a uniform ultrastructure throughout the length ofthe leaf. The vacuome comprises aproximately 97 per cent ofthe protoplasmic volume of window cells. Chlorenchyma cellspossess thin cell walls and are surrounded by numerous intercellularspaces. Cells of the apical chlorenchyma tissue possess approximately30 plastids per cell. These chloroplasts have an average individualvolume of 220 µm2. Cells of the basal chlorenchyma tissuecontain chloroplasts that are five to six times smaller andmore numerous than those in cells of the apical chlorenchyma.The increased volume of chloroplasts in the apical comparedwith basal chlorenchyma cells (i.e. 31.4 and 20.2 per cent ofthe protoplasm, respectively) is positively correlated withtheir optical densities of 1.46 and 0.97, respectively.
