阿拉伯半乳糖蛋白在被子植物有性生殖中的作用 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
阿拉伯半乳糖蛋白(arabinogalactan-proteins,AGPs)是一类主要分布在细胞表面和胞外基质中的糖蛋白.它们在植物的雄性器官(花粉、花粉管、精细胞)、雌性器官(柱头、花柱、子房)和胚胎(合子胚和体细胞胚)等组织和细胞中均有大量的表达.大量研究表明AGPs在被子植物有性生殖过程中起着非常重要的作用,既可能参与花粉管粘附、营养、传导或提供信号的作用,也可能参与受精过程中配子识别和受精后胚胎的发育与分化等过程.该文就其分子结构、特性以及在植物有性生殖过程中各种器官和组织内的表达和功能研究进展做了较为全面的概述. 相似文献

高等植物离体受精研究进展 总被引:12,自引:1,他引:11
田惠桥 《植物生理与分子生物学学报》2003,29(1):3-10
高等植物的卵细胞深藏在子房内的胚珠体细胞组织中,形成了对高等植物受精过程研究的技术障碍。以前采用超微结构观察研究受精过程已取得了一定的结果,但用固定切片技术研究受精机理需将卵细胞杀死,并且不能进行定点追踪观察。将高等植物的精、卵细胞分离出来在体外诱导其融合的离体受精技术可在很大程度上克服这些技术障碍,对雌、雄配子的识别和融合,合子开始胚胎发生等一系列的受精和胚胎发生机理进行研究。分离的雌、雄配子及合子使应用分子生物学方法研究这些细胞的结构和功能成为可能。将合子的二倍性和胚胎发生特性与外源DNA转入技术结合起来可使转基因植物研究的后期工作简单化。另外,异种植物离体精、卵细胞融合和杂种合子的培养也是进行远缘杂交的一条有潜力的途径。 相似文献

被子植物受精机制的研究进展 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
被子植物的受精是一个复杂而精巧的过程。花粉管到达子房,通过退化助细胞进入胚囊,释放出两个精细胞。原来在花粉管中相互联结的两个精细胞在退化助细胞中分开,一个与卵细胞融合,另一个与中央细胞融合,完成双受精。目前对双受精过程中有关雌、雄配子识别的机制还知之甚少。本文介绍了目前被子植物精、卵细胞融合前后的细胞周期变化、退化助细胞的功能、精细胞在退化助细胞中迁移的研究动态、精细胞的倾向受精和卵细胞的激活等被子植物受精生物学领域中的一些新的研究成果和发展趋势。 相似文献

Monoecious flowering plants produce both microgametophytes (pollen) and megagametophytes (embryo sacs) containing the male and female gametes, respectively, which participate in double fertilization. Much is known about cellular and developmental processes giving rise to these reproductive structures and the formation of gametes. However, little is known about the role played by changes in the epigenome in dynamically shaping these defining events during plant sexual reproduction. This has in part been hampered by the inaccessibility of these structures-especially the female gametes, which are embedded within the female reproductive tissues of the plant sporophyte. However, with the recent development of new cellular isolation technologies that can be coupled to next-generation sequencing, a new wave of epigenomic studies indicate that an intricate epigenetic regulation takes place during the formation of male and female reproductive lineages. In this mini review, we assess the fast growing body of evidence for the epigenetic regulation of the developmental fate and function of plant gametes. We describe how small interfereing RNAs and DNA methylation machinery play a part in setting up unique epigenetic landscapes in different gametes, which may be responsible for their different fates and functions during fertilization. Collectively these studies will shed light on the dynamic epigenomic landscape of plant gametes or 'epigametes' and help to answer important unresolved questions on the sexual reproduction of flowering plants, especially those underpinning the formation of two products of fertilization, the embryo and the endosperm. 相似文献

In vitro fertilization as a tool for investigating sexual reproduction of angiosperms 总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0

In vitro fertilization (IVF) of isolated male and female gametes of flowering plants was first accomplished in the last decade. Successful isolation of male and female gametes, and culturing of in vitro zygotes to form new plants, is a prelude to the use of IVF for research into the cellular and molecular control of fertilization in higher plants and its application as a tool in biotechnology. Genes unique to male and female gametes and zygotes of higher plants, although currently incompletely characterized, are expected to permit direct molecular dissection of fertilization. By applying IVF and microculture to zygotes and endosperm obtained by both in vivo and in vitro methods, newly activated fusion products may be observed and manipulated in media where they are directly accessible to the techniques of molecular cell biology. IVF and zygote culture may also offer potential for creating new hybrid plants by fusing isolated gametes from different species to produce unique zygotes and ultimately plants that would be impossible to obtain using typical crossing techniques. Transformation and regeneration frequencies using IVF may also be high enough to avoid the necessity of adding controversial antibiotic and herbicide resistant genes to screen transformed products. This review describes advances using IVF in plant sexual reproduction and discusses its potential in the genetic improvement of flowering plants. 相似文献

The in vitro fertilization system of maize is the well characterized model system for the fertilization process and early
zygotic embryogenesis of higher plants. Application of molecular methods to the in vitro fertilization system led to the isolation
of new genes and uncovered specific expression patterns of cell cycle regulators. Recent studies showed that expression of
transgenes is possible in gametes and zygotes, thus transgenic approaches might offer an opportunity to unravel the roles
of genes during fertilization and early development. The competence of gametes and zygotes to express transgenes will also
enable the expression of GFP based reporter genes for the visualization of subcellular components in these cells in vivo.
This review focuses on the data concerning the expression of transgenes in gametes and zygotes and describes some examples
of recent developments in transgenic technology illustrating the emerging possibilities in experimental design by combining
this technology with in vitro fertilization.

Methods have been developed which enable us to obtain in vitro fusion of pairs of sperm and egg cells, and sperm and central
cells of angiosperms. Cultured products of such cell fusions develop progressively into zygotes, embryos and fertile plants,
and endosperm, respectively. In vitro fusion of isolated gametes allows precisely timed examination of the earliest developmental
processes following fertilization. When cultured, in vitro produced zygotes and primary endosperm cells organize themselves
independently, and without any requirement for supporting tissues. This technology thus constitutes a unique model system
for studies of early stages of zygotic embryogenesis and endosperm development. Following the adaptation of molecular techniques
for use with only a few cells, it has proved possible to investigate developmental processes in these systems. This review
describes the successful combination of molecular techniques with in vitro fertilization methods, and highlights results obtained
with small numbers of reproductive cells isolated by microdissection. 相似文献

In vitro fertilization (IVF) systems using isolated male and female gametes have been utilized to dissect fertilization-induced
events in angiosperms, such as egg activation, zygote development and early embryogenesis, as the female gametophytes of plants
are deeply embedded within ovaries. In this study, a rice IVF system was established to take advantage of the abundant resources
stemming from rice research for investigations into the mechanisms of fertilization and early embryogenesis. Fusion of gametes
was performed using a modified electrofusion method, and the fusion product, a zygote, formed cell wall and an additional
nucleolus. The zygote divided into a two-celled embryo 15–24 h after fusion, and developed into a globular-like embryo consisting
of an average of 15–16 cells by 48 h after fusion. Comparison of the developmental processes of zygotes produced by IVF with
those of zygotes generated in planta suggested that zygotes produced by IVF develop and grow into early globular stage embryos
in a highly similar manner to those in planta. Although the IVF-produced globular embryos did not develop into late globular-stage
or differentiated embryos, but into irregularly shaped cell masses, fertile plants were regenerated from the cell masses and
the seeds harvested from these plants germinated normally. The rice IVF system reported here will be a powerful tool for studying
the molecular mechanisms involved in the early embryogenesis of angiosperms and for making new cultivars. 相似文献
