巴戟天花药发育过程中多糖和脂滴分布特征

巴戟天花药发育中多糖和脂滴类物质的分布呈现一定的规律：减数分裂之前,花药壁的绒毡层细胞中有少量脂滴,其他细胞中脂滴和淀粉粒都很少。四分体时期,四分体小孢子中开始出现脂滴,绒毡层细胞中的脂滴较以前增加,其他细胞中的脂滴和淀粉粒仍然很少。小孢子早期,游离小孢子在其表面形成了花粉外壁,靠外壁下方有一层周缘分布的多糖物质。绒毡层细胞中的脂滴明显减少。发育晚期的小孢子中形成一个大液泡,细胞质中出现淀粉粒;同时在药壁和药隔组织中也出现了淀粉粒。此时绒毡层退化。在二胞花粉早期,花粉中积累了大量淀粉粒和一些脂滴。但在成熟的花粉中（二胞花粉晚期）,淀粉粒消失,只有一定数量的脂滴保留。巴戟天成熟花粉中积累的营养物质主要为脂滴。

莴苣花药发育过程中钙的分布特征

减数分裂前,莴苣花药中的钙颗粒很少。减数分裂后,花药绒毡层细胞中的钙颗粒明显增加, 同时在花药药室基质中也出现许多细小的钙颗粒。刚从四分体中释放出的小孢子内钙颗粒很少,伴随着花粉外壁物质在小孢子表面的沉积,钙颗粒开始积累在花粉壁部位。随后,小孢子中开始出现钙颗粒。当小孢子开始形成液泡后,钙颗粒向其中聚集,伴随着小液泡融合成大液泡,体积较大的钙颗粒主要集中在液泡中,而细胞质基质中的钙颗粒很少。随着二胞花粉中的大液泡消失,花粉细胞质中的钙颗粒变得很少。在以后的发育中,只有花粉壁中积累较多的钙颗粒。在莴苣花药发育过程中,钙与绒毡层细胞的退化和小孢子液泡形成以及二胞花粉中大波泡的消失有关。而花粉外壁表面积累丰富的钙与以后花粉的萌发有关。

枸杞花药发育过程中钙的分布

在枸杞花药发育过程中,用焦锑酸钾沉淀的钙颗粒显示出了一个与花药发育事件有关的分布特征：在孢原细胞时期的花药中钙颗粒很少。在造孢细胞到小孢子母细胞时期,花药中钙颗粒增加。当花粉母细胞进行减数分裂时,花药中的钙颗粒进一步增加,尤其是在小孢子母细胞的胼胝质壁中。在小孢子发育早期,花药药隔部位的绒毡层细胞质中钙颗粒也明显增加并特异性地分布在其内切向壁上。当小孢子被释放出后,钙颗粒开始特异性积累在正在形成的花粉外壁中,尤其在萌发孔的部位聚集了大量的钙颗粒。当小孢子形成大液泡时,其细胞质中的钙颗粒明显减少。在小孢子分裂形成二胞花粉后,在二胞花粉的大液泡中又特异性地出现许多细小钙颗粒。随着二胞花粉的大液泡完全消失,其细胞质中又出现了许多钙颗粒。接近开花时的成熟花粉粒细胞质中,细小的钙颗粒主要分布在营养细胞和生殖细胞中。枸杞花药发育过程中钙的分布特征反映了其参与调控花粉发育过程。

莴苣花粉发育过程中ATP酶的分布

对莴苣花粉发育过程中ATPase的分布特征做了研究。四分体早期的小孢子细胞质中开始出现ATPase反应颗粒。之后,小孢子在发育过程中,花粉内壁聚集大量体积较大的ATPase反应颗粒,并一直保持到花粉即将成熟。在小孢子发育晚期,在花粉萌发孔处和小孢子大液泡中也特异性地聚集了较多ATPase颗粒。二胞花粉刚形成的生殖细胞表面呈现大量的ATPase反应颗粒,当生殖细胞脱离花粉内壁移入营养细胞,ATPase反应颗粒基本消失。生殖细胞分化过程中生殖细胞的ATPase反应颗粒逐渐低于营养细胞中的。在成熟花粉中,精细胞中的ATPase反应颗粒比营养细胞中的少,且主要集中在细胞核中。结果显示花粉发育过程中ATPase的特异分布与花粉发育的一些生物学事件密切相关。

Microsporogenesis inPinus sylvestris L. VIII. Tapetal and late pollen grain development

This last portion of our developmental study ofPinus sylvestris L. pollen grains extends from just prior to the first microspore mitosis to the microsporangial dehiscence preparatory to pollen shedding. In nine years of collecting each day the duration of the above period was 7 to 11 days. Tapetal cells extended into the loculus and embraced microspores during the initial part of the above period. Thereafter tapetal cells receded, became parallel to parietal cells and so imbricated that there appeared to be two or three layers of tapetal cells. Tapetal cells were present up to the day before pollen shedding, but only rER and some mitochondria appeared to be in good condition at that time. A callosic layer (outer intine) was initiated under the endexine before microspore mitosis. After the first mitosis the first prothallial cell migrated to the proximal wall and was covered on the side next to the pollen cytoplasm by a thin wall joining the thick outer intine. There are plasmodesmata between pollen cytoplasm and the prothallial cell. After the second mitosis the second prothallial cell became enveloped by the outer intine. The inner intine appears after formation of the two prothallial cells but before the third mitosis. During this two-prothallial cell period before the third mitosis, plastids had large and complex fibrillar assemblies shown to be modified starch grains. After the third mitosis plastids of the pollen cytoplasm contained starch and the generative cell (antheridial initial), the product of that mitosis, is enveloped by the inner intine. On the day of pollen shedding cells are removed from the microsporangial wall by what appears to be focal autolysis. The tapetal and endothecial cells for 10–15 µm on each side of the dehiscence slit are completely removed. One or more epidermal cells are lysed, but both a thin cuticle and the very thin sporopollenin-containing peritapetal membrane remain attached to the undamaged epidermal cells bordering the dehiscence slit. Our study terminates on the day of pollen shedding with mature pollen still within the open microsporangium. At that time there is no longer a clear morphological distinction between the outer and inner intine but, judging by stain reactions, there is a chemical difference. The exine of shed pollen grains was found to be covered by small spinules on the inner surface of alveoli. These had the same spacing as the Sporopollenin Acceptor Particles (SAPs) associated with exine initiation and growth.     

Secretory tapetum of Brassica oleracea L.: polarity and ultrastructural features

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.     

Immunocytochemical localization of the allergenic proteins in the pollen of Cryptomeria japonica

Applying an immunocytochemical method, a localization of the protein Cry j I in the Cryptomeria japonica pollen, which is the major allergen responsible for Japanese cedar pollinosis, is investigated with the monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies produced from the protein. The protein that reacts to the polyclonal antibody localizes on the sexine, nexine, between nexine and intine layers, orbicles, cell wall of a generative cell, Golgi body and Golgi vesicles. The allergenic protein contained in the exine and orbicles of Japanese cedar pollen can diffuse or dissolve easily from there into the mucus covering of the eye and nose, causing a response in less than 1 min after exposure. Since the orbicles have a diameter of about 430 nm, they can pass easily through the pores of most protective masks to reach the sensitive tissues of the patient. The proteins react to the monoclonal antibodies (J1BO1 and J1BO7) and localize on the Golgi body, sexine, nexine and orbicles (but not between the nexine and intine layers), and on the generative cell wall. In the young pollen grain, numerous allergenic protein particles contained in the orbicles and sexine layer, but there is only a small amount of the protein between the nexine and intine layers, since the intine layer is not yet complete at this stage. More will be accumulated there during developmental maturation. The allergenic protein is also found on the tapetal materials remaining in the young anther. Since the materials forming the exine layer and orbicles come from tapetal tissue, it is assumed that some of the allergenic protein is produced in the tapetum and localized in the orbicles and pollen wall during maturation, and that the rest of the allergenic protein is produced in the Golgi body in the mature pollen grain.     

POLLEN WALL AND TAPETAL ORBICULAR WALL DEVELOPMENT IN SORGHUM BICOLOR (GRAMINEAE)

Pollen wall development in Sorghum bicolor is morphologically and temporally paralleled by the formation of a prominent orbicular wall on the inner tangential surface of the tapetum. In the late tetrad stage, a thin, nearly uniform primexine forms around each microspore (except at the pore site) beneath the intact callose; concurrently, small spherical bodies (pro-orbicules) appear between the undulate tapetal plasmalemma and the disappearing tapetal primary wall. Within the primexine, differentially staining loci appear, which only develop into young bacula as the callose disappears. Thus, microspore walls are devoid of a visible exine pattern when released from tetrads. Afterwards, sporopollenin accumulates simultaneously on the primexine and bacula, forming the exine, and on the pro-orbicules, forming orbicules. Channels develop in the tectum and nexine, and both layers thicken to complete the microspore exine. Channeled sporopollenin also accumulates on the orbicules. A prominent sporopollenin reticulum interconnects the individual orbicules to produce an orbicular wall; this wall persists even after the tapetal protoplasts degenerate and after anthesis. While the pollen grains become engorged with reserves, a thick intine, containing conspicuous cytoplasmic channels, forms beneath the exine. Fibrous material collects beneath the orbicular wall. The parallel development and morphological similarities between the tapetal and pollen walls are discussed.
