Summary The ultrastructure of the secretory, binucleate tapetum of Brassica oleracea in the micro spore mother cell (MMC) stage through to the mature pollen stage is reported. The tapetal cells differentiate as highly specialized cells whose development is involved in lipid accumulation in their final stage. They start breaking down just before anther dehiscence. Nuclei with dispersed chromatin, large nucleoli and many ribosomes in the cytoplasm characterize the tapetal cells. The wall-bearing tapetum phase ends at the tetrade stage. The dissolution of tapetal walls begins from the inner tangential wall oriented towards the loculus and proceeds gradually along the radial walls to the outer tangential one. The plasmodesmata transversing the radial walls between tapetal cells persist until the mature microspore, long after loss of the inner tangential wall. After wall dissolution, the tapetal protoplasts retain their integrity and position within the anther locule. The tapetal cell membrane is in direct contact with the exine of the microspores/pollen grains and forms tubular evaginations that increase its surface area and appear to be involved in the translocation of solutes from the tapetal cells to the microspores/ pollen grains. The tapetal cells exhibit a polarity expressed by spatial differentiation in the radial direction. 相似文献

Development of the anther wall was studied with special reference to the tapetum in Pyrostegia ignea. The archesporium in each microsporangium is horseshoe-shaped. The inner tapetum develops earlier from the vegetative cells of the connective region while the outer differentiates a little later from the parietal layers. Thus, the tapetum has a distinct dual origin. The two tapetal layers exhibit a pronounced structural dimorphism. Sometimes, sterile septae, partitioning the sporogenous tissue, develop in microsporangia. A prominent membrane with Ubisch granules (orbicules) is organised on the inner tangential surface of the tapetal protoplasts facing the uninucleate microspores. 相似文献

During microsporogenesis and pollen maturation, the tapetumin anthers of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) underwent severalultrastructural changes and ultimately degenerated. The changesobserved related to the secretory function of the tapetum andto the transfer of materials from the cytoplasm to the surfaceof tapetal cells. Electron dense deposits, initially in thevacuoles, disappeared coincident with the appearance of orbiculeson the cell wall. The fibrillar wall of the tapetal cells loosened,presumably to facilitate transfer of materials through the wall.In Addition, membranous fragments were a consistent featurein the tapetum wall and may play a role in transport of materials.The cells of the inner tapetum (towards the connective) andouter tapetum (towards the epidermis) had different ultrastructuralfeatures. The cytoplasm of the outer tapetum was more electrondense and had a higher proportion of dictyosomes and mitochondriathan the inner tapetum, indicating the greater secretory natureof the outer tapetum. The plastids and mitochondria also differedin morphology between the two regions. Degenerations of thetapetal cytoplasm began by the vacuolate microspore stage. Atanthesis, cytoplasm was absent but the orbicular wall of thetapetum remained appressed to the wall of the middle layer ofthe anther.Copyright 1993, 1999 Academic Press Lycopersicon esculentum, microsporogenesis, pollen development, tapetum development, tomato, ultrastructure 相似文献

In this study anther ontogeny of Campsis radicans (L.) Seem. was investigated by transmission electron microscopy and light microscopy with special reference to the development of the anther wall. The anther wall formation follows the dicotyledonous type. The differentiation in anther starts with the appearance of archesporial cells which undergo periclinal divisions to give primary parietal layer to the epidermal site and the primary sporogenous cells to the inside. The primary parietal layer also divides to form two secondary parietal layers. Later, the outer secondary parietal layer (spl1) forms the endothecium and the middle layer by periclinal division whereas the inner one (spl2) directly develops into the outer tapetum forming the inner most layer of the anther wall. The sporogenous tissue is generally organized in two rows of cells with a horseshoe-shaped outline. The remainder of the tapetum lining the sporogenous mass is derived from the connective tissue. The tapetum thus has dual origin and dimorphic. Anthers are tetrasporangiate. The wall of the anther consists of an epidermis, endothecium, middle layer, and the secretory type tapetum. Tapetal cells are usually binucleated. Epidermis and Endothecium layers of anther wall remain intact until the end of anther and pollen development; however, middle layer and tapetum disappear during development. 相似文献

Two recessive male-sterile mutants of maize with similar patterns of pollen abortion were studied. Genetic studies showed that one of the two mutations was allelic with a previously identified male-sterility locus (ms23) and the other mutation was in a newly identified male-sterility locus (ms32). Cytological characterization of homozygous mutants and fertile heterozygous control siblings was performed using brightfield, fluorescence, and electron microscopy. During normal anther development, the final anther wall periclinal division divides the secondary parietal anther wall layer into the middle layer and tapetum, forming an anther with four wall layers. This is followed by differentiation of the tapetal cells into protoplastic binucleate, secretory tissue. In both the ms23 and ms32 mutants, the prospective tapetal layer divided into two layers, termed t1 and t2, forming an anther with five wall layers. Neither the t1 nor the t2 layers differentiated normally into tapetal layers, as determined by examination of cell walls, nucleus number, and cytoplasmic organization. Pollen mother cells aborted after the onset of prophase I of meiosis, suggesting that an early developmental coordination may exist between tapetum and pollen mother cells. 相似文献

Brachypodium distachyon has emerged as a model plant for the improvement of grain crops such as wheat, barley and oats and for understanding basic biological processes to facilitate the development of grasses as superior energy crops. Brachypodium is also the first species of the grass subfamily Pooideae with a sequenced genome. For obtaining a better understanding of the mechanisms controlling male gametophyte development in B. distachyon, here we report the cellular changes during the stages of anther development, with special reference to the development of the anther wall. Brachypodium anthers are tetrasporangiate and follow the typical monocotyledonous-type anther wall formation pattern. Anther differentiation starts with the appearance of archesporial cells, which divide to generate primary parietal and primary sporogenous cells. The primary parietal cells form two secondary parietal layers. Later, the outer secondary parietal layer directly develops into the endothecium and the inner secondary parietal layer forms an outer middle layer and inner tapetum by periclinal division. The anther wall comprises an epidermis, endothecium, middle layer and the secretory-type tapetum. Major documented events of anther development include the degradation of a secretory-type tapetum and middle layer during the course of development and the rapid formation of U-shaped endothecial thickenings in the mature pollen grain stage. The tapetum undergoes degeneration at the tetrad stage and disintegrates completely at the bicellular stage of pollen development. The distribution of insoluble polysaccharides in the anther layers and connective tissue through progressive developmental stages suggests their role in the development of male gametophytes. Until sporogenous cell stage, the amount of insoluble polysaccharides in the anther wall was negligible. However, abundant levels of insoluble polysaccharides were observed during microspore mother cell and tetrad stages and gradually declined during the free microspore and vacuolated microspore stages to undetectable level at the mature stage. Thus, the cellular features in the development of anthers in B. distachyon share similarities with anther and pollen development of other members of Poaceae. 相似文献

Summary The development of sporogenous and tapetal cells in the anthers of male-fertile and cytoplasmic male-sterile sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) plants was studied using light and transmission electron microscopy. In general, male-sterile anthers showed a much greater variability in developmental pattern than male-fertile anthers. The earliest deviation from normal anther development was observed to occur in sterile anthers at meiotic early prophase: there was a degeneration or irregular proliferation of the tapetal cells. Other early aberrant events were the occurrence of numerous small vesicles in the microspore mother cells (MMC) and a disorganized chromatin condensation. Deviations that occurred in sterile anthers at later developmental stages included: (1) less distinct inner structures in the mitochondria of both MMC and tapetal cells from middle prophase onwards. (2) dilated ER and nuclear membranes at MMC prophase, in some cases associated with the formation of protein bodies. (3) breakdown of cell walls in MMCs and tapetal cells at late meiotic prophase. (4) no massive increase in tapetal ER at the tetrad stage. (5) a general dissolution of membranes, first in the MMC, then in the tapetum. (6) abortion of microspores and the occurrence of a plasmodial tapetum in anthers reaching the microspore stage. (7) no distinct degeneration of tapetal cells after microspore formation. Thus, it seems that the factors that lead to abortive microsporogenesis are structurally expressed at widely different times during anther development. Aberrant patterns are not restricted to the tetrad stage but occur at early prophase. 相似文献

Summary Anthers ofLilium were for the first time investigated at the ultrastructural level in order to appreciate the possible ways of sugar transport in the microsporangium. Our results have shown that the cells of the outer anther wall layers and the cell of the connective were interconnected by plasmodesmata, thus allowing assimilates to travel through the symplasmic pathway from the vascular bundle to the most internal middle layer (ML 1). ML 1 was devoid of cell communication throughout pollen development. Tapetal cells were also lacking plasmodesmata on their external face towards ML 1, but adjacent tapetal cells developed lateral junctions: the tapetum could represent a syncytium. Sugars destinated to pollen in the loculus have then to cross the ML 1 and the tapetal layers by the apoplasmic pathway; it is suggested that these two envelopes could be involved in the control of sugar transport from the outer anther wall layers to the locular fluid. Before microspore mitosis, the tapetum degenerated but ML 1 remained structurally unchanged. During pollen development, the guard cells of stomata were lacking cell communication, and preserved their starch content, which could be the sign of photosynthesis within the anther wall. In order to check whether these structural disconnections in anther tissues corresponded to physiological barriers, isolated pollen and stamens were cultivated during the anther maturation phase, on a medium containing increasing concentrations of sucrose (0 M, 1/6 M, 1/2 M, 1 M). After 7 days of culture, isolated pollen was engorged with starch grains and was unable to germinate, whereas in cultivated stamens, pollen did not contain any starch grain: sporophytic tissues, however, accumulated abnormal amylaceous reserves. These results strongly suggest that the anther wall layers, in particular ML 1, starve pollen with sugars during its maturation. They are acting as a physiological buffer storing nutriment surplus in starch grains.Abbreviations ML 1

Summary The process of microsporogenesis and microgametogenesis was studied at the ultrastructural level in wild-typeArabidopsis thaliana ecotype Wassilewskija to provide a basis for comparison with nuclear male-sterile mutants of the same ecotype. From the earliest stage studied to mature pollen just prior to anther dehiscence, microsporocyte/microspore/pollen development follows the general pattern seen in most angiosperms. The tapetum is of the secretory type with loss of the tapetal cell walls beginning at about the time of microsporocyte meiosis. Wall loss exhibits polarity with the tapetal protoplasts becoming located at a distance from the inner tangential walls first, followed by an increase in distance from the radial walls beginning at the interior edge and progressing outward. The inner tangential and radial tapetal walls are completely degenerated by the microspore tetrad stage. Unlike other members of the Brassicaceae that have been studied, the tapetal cells ofA. thaliana Wassilewskija also lose their outer tangential walls, and secretion occurs from all sides of the cells. Exine wall precursors are secreted from the tapetal cells in a process that appears to involve dilation of individual endoplasmic reticulum cisternae that fuse with the tapetal cell membrane and release their contents into the locule. Following completion of the exine, the tapetal cell plastids develop membranebound inclusions with osmiophilic and electron-transparent regions. The plastids undergo ultrastructural changes that suggest breakdown of the inclusion membranes followed by release of their contents into the locule prior to the complete degeneration of the tapetal cells. 相似文献

Tapetum of Pulsatilla chinensis is of secretory type. Its development proceeds rapidly in following sequence: (1) The stage of initiation-differentiation. At this stage cytological and histochemical features have been described in detail in this paper. (2) The stage of growth- synthesis: This stage appears to be the most important anabolic phase during the development of the tapetum. The salient features are that the tapetal cells become relatively enlarged and form two polyploid nuclei or aberrent polyploid nuclei resulting in synthetizing maximum proteins, fluorescing substances and maximum fluorescent Pro-Ubisch bodies in the tapetal cytoplasm. (3) The stage of secretion-disorganization: After the disintegration of the tapetal wall the enlarged naked cells appear at once. This is an important secretion period in which Pro-Ubisch bodies as well as all other fluorescing substances, carbohydrate or some enzymes are released into anther loculus. The naked cell layer becomes disorgnized until the beginning divition of the pollen grains into two ceils. As to peritapetal membrane of P. chinensis, mainly based on the membrane being on the outer side of the tapetum enclosing both the pollen, tapetal cytoplasm and Ubisch bodies, and the cellular configurations facing the pollen, Authors postulate that peritapetal membrane might be survival of the cytoplasmic membrane of tapetal cells. However, the peritapetal membrane of P. chinensis is similar to that of plasmodial, tapetum reported in certain Compositae and that of secretory tapetum reported in Pinus banksiana. Heslop-Harrison and Gupta et al. had conceded that the tapetal and peritapetal membrane belong to the general class of sporopollenin. On the contrary in P. chinensis the sporopollenin property of peritapetal membrane is only confined to its inner surface. But the thin mem- brane itself with the reticulate sporopollenin attched on its inner side appears negative staining reactions for sporopollenin though it has an ability to resist the acetolysis as well. In P. chinensis the Ubisch body is short necked flask shaped and their size is very similar. Ubisch body is either single or 2–5 in a group, resulting in compound bodies. When the Pro-Ubisch body is still within the tapetal cell it shows positive fluorescent reaction, while it eomletely unstains with Teluidine blue O. So Authors infer that the sporopollenin precur- sors may have permeated through Pro-Ubisch bodies. Finally, How sporopollenin precursor is synthesized in the tapetal cells, transported to pollen locula and polymerized into the sporopollenin on pollen, Ubisch body and peritapetal membrane? Future works along these problems may yield fruitful results. 相似文献

In safflower, the anther wall at maturity consists of a single epidermis, an endothecium, a middle layer and the tapetum.
The tapetum consists mainly of a single layer of cells. However, this single-layer appearance is punctuated by loci having
‘two-celled’ groupings due to additional periclinal divisions in some tapetal cells. Meiotic division in microsporocytes gives
rise to tetrads of microspores. The primexine is formed around the protoplasts of microspores while they are still enveloped
within the callose wall. Just prior to microgametogenesis, the microspores enlarge through the process of vacuolation, and
the exine wall pattern becomes established. Microgametogenesis results in the formation of 3-celled pollen grains. The two
elongated sperm cells appear to be connected. The exine wall is highly sculptured with a distinct tectum, columellae, a foot
layer, an endexine and a thin intine. Similar to other members of the Asteraceae family, the tapetum is of the invasive type.
The most novel finding of this study is that in addition to the presence of invasive tapetal cells, a small population of
‘non-invasive’ tapetal cells is also present. The tapetal cells next to the anther locules in direct contact with the microspores
become invasive and start to grow into the space between developing microspores. These tapetal cells synthesize tryphine and
eventually degenerate at the time of gametogenesis releasing their content into the anther locules. A smaller population of
non-invasive tapetal cells is formed as a result of periclinal divisions at the time of tapetum differentiation. These cells
are not exposed to the anther locules until the degeneration of the invasive tapetal cells. The non-invasive tapetal cells
have a different cell fate as they synthesize pollenkitt. This material is responsible for allowing some pollen grains to
adhere to each other and to the anther wall after anther dehiscence. This observation explains the out-crossing ability of
Carthamus species and varieties in nature. 相似文献

The flowers of Dichorisandra thyrsiflora (Commelinaceae) are monosymmetric and composed of three sepals, three petals, six stamens, and three connate carpels. The anthers are poricidal and possess a wall of five cell layers (tapetum included). This type of anther wall, not previously observed in the Commelinaceae, is developmentally derived from the monocotyledonous type via an additional periclinal division and the persistence of the middle layers through anther dehiscence. Secondary endothecial thickenings develop in the cells of the two middle layers only. The tapetum is periplasmodial and contains raphides. Microsporogenesis is successive and yields both decussate and isobilateral tetrads. Pollen is shed as single binucleate grains. The gynoecium is differentiated into a globose ovary, hollow elongate style, and trilobed papillate stigma. Each locule contains six to eight hemianatropous to slightly campylotropous crassinucellar ovules with axile (submarginal) placentation. The ovules are bitegmic with a slightly zig-zag micropyle. Megagametophyte development is of the Polygonum type. The mature megagametophyte consists of an egg apparatus and fusion nucleus; the antipodals having degenerated. The floral vasculature is organized into an outer and inner system of bundles in the pedicel. The outer system becomes ventral carpellary bundles. All other floral vascular traces originate from the inner system. 相似文献

In this study, distribution of polysaccharides, lipids, and proteins in the developing anthers of Campsis radicans (L.) Seem. was examined from sporogenous cell stage to mature pollen, using cytochemical methods. To detect the distribution and dynamic changes of insoluble polysaccharides, lipid bodies, and proteins in the anthers through progressive developmental stages, semi-thin sections of anthers at different developmental stages were stained with periodic-acid-Schiff (PAS) reagent, Sudan black B, and Coomassie brilliant blue, respectively, and examined under light microscope. Ultrastructural observations with TEM were also carried out to determine the storage form of starch in the connective tissue, and storage form of lipids in the tapetal cells. In sporogenous cell stage, anther wall contains numerous insoluble polysaccharides. However, from the sporogenous cell stage to the vacuolated microspore stage, the amount of insoluble polysaccharides in the anther wall decreases gradually. At bicellular pollen stage, tapetum degenerates completely and polysaccharides are not seen in the anther wall. Lipid bodies are observed in the cytoplasm of both middle layer and tapetal cells at tetrad stage, whereas they disappear in the vacuolated microspore stage. Compared with polysaccharides, proteins are limited in the anther wall at early stages of development. During pollen development, polysaccharides, proteins, and lipid bodies are scarce in the cytoplasm of sporogenous cells, but their amount increases at premeiotic stage. From tetrad stage to bicellular pollen stage, microspore cytoplasm contains variable amount of insoluble polysaccharide grains, lipid and protein bodies. At bicellular pollen stage, plentiful amount of starch granules are stored in the cytoplasm of the pollen grains. Proteins and lipid bodies are also present in the cytoplasm. 相似文献

The pollen wall of tetrads located in different positions of a mature pollinium of Cymbidium goeringii was examined with the electron microscope, and the compositions of wall materials were also tested with different histochemical methods. In all tetrads of a pollinium, the pollen wall can be distingished into an exine and an intine, but the exine may be varied greatly according to the tetrad position in a pollenium. The part of the pollen wall (the outer wall) of the external tetrads, lying close, to the tapetum, is composed of two layers, i.e. the exine, and the intine. Theexine consists of tectum, granulate ectexine and endexine, without foot layer. The intine is cellulose in nature. In the outer wall between different groups of: tetrads and in the inner wall within an individual tetrad, the structure of ectexine becomes simple and the deposition of sporopollenin is roduced The degree of reduction of ectexine nicreases from the outer to inner tetrads in several external layers of a pollinium, and even the internal tetrads have a reduced ectexine or lack of it. The present study also demonstrates that the mechanism of pollen aggregation into a pollinium is built on a combined effect of the following features: (1) connected bridges formed' by intine between two pollens within a tetrad, (2) formation of cytoplasmic channels between two pollens within a tetrad, (3) incomplete cell wall formation within a tetrad, (4) little size of tetrads and compact arrangement of mature tetrads and (5) a sticky viscin material surrounded on the outside of a pollinium. 相似文献

The ontogeny of the dimorphic tapetal cells of Alectra thomsonihas been investigated. A layer of hypodermal cells first developsin each lobe of the anther and, from this, the primary parietallayer is cut off towards the outside of the lobe. Towards theinside, the primary sporogenous cells are formed. The primaryparietal layer undergoes a second periclinal division givingrise to two layers of cells; the outer of these develops intothe endothecium and the upper middle layer, while the inward-facinglayer forms the lower middle layer and part of the tapetum.The remainder of the tapetum is formed from the cells of theconnective tissue closest to the inner side of the sporogenousmass. No sterilization of the sporocytes has been observed. 相似文献
