Geotropic response of cucumber hypocotyls 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Exogenous auxin applied to the apical bud of intact cucumberseedlings promoted elongation of the hypocotyl, mostly of theapical zone (zone I) and to a lesser extent, the middle andbasal zones (zones II and III). Geotropic curvature was clearlyobserved 30 min after geostimulation. The curvature began atzone I and moved toward the basal zones with prolonged geostimulation.Decapitation (removal of apex and cotyledons) did not produceany appreciable effect on the geotropic response, but the curvaturewas reduced with the removal of zone I. Auxin application toseedlings without zone I restored their ability to respond togravity. The lower epidermis of horizontally oriented hypocotylsplayed a more important role than the upper in the geotropicresponse. The extensibility of the lower epidermal cell wallwas increased significantly by the geostimulus before the onsetof the curvature response. (Received August 24, 1973; ) 相似文献

Methyl jasmonate (JA-Me) at a concentration of 0.5 % induced the formation of secondary abscission zone and senescence in
several types of stem explants (only internode segment, internode segment with nodes and without leaves, internode segment
with nodes and debladed petioles) of Bryophyllum calycinum when it was applied in various places of the stem or the debladed petiole as lanolin paste. In the presence of small leaves
in stem explants methyl jasmonate also induced the formation of secondary abscission zone and senescence but the presence
of larger leaves completely inhibited methyl jasmonate-induced processes. Auxin, (indole-3-acetic acid, IAA), at a concentration
of 0.1 % extremely prevented the formation of secondary abscission zones and senescence in the stem tissues induced by methyl
jasmonate. Similar relationship between auxin and methyl jasmonate to induce the formation of secondary abscission zone and
senescence was found in decapitated shoot of the intact plant. Mechanisms of the formation of secondary abscission zone are
also discussed in terms of the interaction of methyl jasmonate with auxin. 相似文献

Segments of the 4th and 5th internodes of light-grown pea seedlings were used for the study of control of stem elongation. With 5th internodes, at low turgor as well as at water saturation auxin primarily appeared to cause a change in cell wall properties of the epidermis but it showed little effect on expansion af the inner tissue. This was confirmed by comparison of expansion between peeled and unpeeled segments, split tests and by measurements of stress-relaxation properties of the epidermal cell wall. Segments with the central part re-moved elongated well in response to auxin, but the isolated epidermis showed neither auxin-induced elongation nor cell wall loosening. A fungal β-1,3-glucanase appeared, at least partly, to have a similar effect as that of auxin on elongation, by changing cell wall properties of the epidermal cell wall. Peeled segments of 4th internodes expanded very little and auxin had little effect on their epidermal cell wall properties. 相似文献

The chrysanthemum (Dendranthema morifolium) variety ‘Yuhuajinhua’ has a creeping growth habit. An ELISA-based assessment of the content and distribution of IAA in the stem of ‘Yuhuajinhua’ showed that there was an IAA concentration gradient across the stem segment between the 2nd and 4th nodes, counting from the apex, before the creeping growth, while this difference disappeared after the initiation of creeping growth. An immunohistochemical assay for IAA showed that auxin was concentrated in the epidermis and cortex of the proximal side of the stem, particularly in the first few hours after gravitational stimulation was applied. The bending of the stem was generated by the asymmetric elongation of the epidermal cells in proximal side of the stem, especially upon to 6 h after gravistimulation, and this was probably mediated by an alteration in the IAA gradient across the stem. Exogenously applied 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) or 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) played converse effects on the gravitropic stem curvature. The data support the idea that IAA plays a crucial regulatory role in the formation of the creeping habit in the chrysanthemum variety ‘Yuhuajinhua’. 相似文献

Seed coat development of Harpagophytum procumbens (Devil's Claw) and the possible role of the mature seed coat in seed dormancy were studied by light microscopy (LM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM). Very young ovules of H. procumbens have a single thick integument consisting of densely packed thin-walled parenchyma cells that are uniform in shape and size. During later developmental stages the parenchyma cells differentiate into 4 different zones. Zone 1 is the multi-layered inner epidermis of the single integument that eventually develops into a tough impenetrable covering that tightly encloses the embryo. The inner epidermis is delineated on the inside by a few layers of collapsed remnant endosperm cell wall layers and on the outside by remnant cell wall layers of zone 2, also called the middle layer. Together with the inner epidermis these remnant cell wall layers from collapsed cells may contribute towards seed coat impermeability. Zone 2 underneath the inner epidermis consists of large thin-walled parenchyma cells. Zone 3 is the sub-epidermal layers underneath the outer epidermis referred to as a hypodermis and zone 4 is the single outer seed coat epidermal layer. Both zones 3 and 4 develop unusual secondary wall thickenings. The primary cell walls of the outer epidermis and hypodermis disintegrated during the final stages of seed maturation, leaving only a scaffold of these secondary cell wall thickenings. In the mature seed coat the outer fibrillar seed coat consists of the outer epidermis and hypodermis and separates easily to reveal the dense, smooth inner epidermis of the seed coat. Outer epidermal and hypodermal wall thickenings develop over primary pit fields and arise from the deposition of secondary cell wall material in the form of alternative electron dense and electron lucent layers. ESEM studies showed that the outer epidermal and hypodermal seed coat layers are exceptionally hygroscopic. At 100% relative humidity within the ESEM chamber, drops of water readily condense on the seed surface and react in various ways with the seed coat components, resulting in the swelling and expansion of the wall thickenings. The flexible fibrous outer seed coat epidermis and hypodermis may enhance soil seed contact and retention of water, while the inner seed coat epidermis maintains structural and perhaps chemical seed dormancy due to the possible presence of inhibitors. 相似文献

Petal explants ofChelidonium majus L. (Papaveraceae) formed noteworthy adventitious buds without any intermediate callus when cultured under appropriate conditions.
Bud formation was favored by combinations of 1–2 mg/l indoleacetic acid (IAA) and/or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 0.1–0.5 mg/l kinetin (K).
In the present study, neither bud formation nor callus formation occurred in cultures of excised leaves. A histological study
revealed that adventitious bud formation occurred only in single epidermal layers of petals, while several subepidermal parenchyma
layers did not join in its formation. Activation zones arising from the epidermis underwent intense cell divisions to initiate
buds on the epidermal surface. These buds later turned green in color, developing into shoots which eventually grew into plantlets
after root formation. 相似文献

Summary The anatomy and morphology of bud regeneration were investigated in melon (Cucumis melo L.) cv. Galia, which regenerates in vitro only by direct organogenesis from the cotyledon explant. Explants were cut from the cotyledon proximal to the apex from 3-d-old
in vitro seedlings. After 3 d on Murashige and Skoog medium with N6-benzyladenine, cell division can be observed in the epidermal layer on the adaxial side in the center of the explant, near
the most proximal (wounded) cut edge. Over the next week, the area of the meristem increases laterally. Additional cell layers
are added to the meristematic area by cell division in the epidermis. In places the epidermis remains active in cell division.
Alongside those active areas there are zones where the epidermis has become inactive, although the subepidermal layers continue
to divide. In transverse section, the explant now has small protuberances on the adaxial surface. After 10 d on cytokinin-containing
medium, the first signs of development are visible on the adaxial surface adjacent to the proximal cut edge. The protuberances
observed after 10 d are neither primordia nor buds, although some meristematic bulges are observed. The first regenerated
shoot buds are observed histologically after 15 d, by which time the surface has many protuberances and some small leaves.
The first shoot is found by histology after 22 d. By this time the surface is covered with protrusions and leaves, mostly
without accompanying buds. The leaves may be produced from the protrusions initially visible after 10 d. 相似文献

Summary Adventitious bud formation was induced on detached cotyledons and on cotyledons attached to excised embryos ofPinus caribaea andPseudotsuga menziesii. The embryonic tissue was exposed to the cytokinin 6-benzyl amino purine contained within an agar medium. This exposure resulted in the formation of a meristematic zone, involving both epidermal and sub-epidermal cells, and then nodules on the tissue surface. Some of these nodules were induced to differentiate into bud primordia, and thence shoots, following exposure to a combination of auxin (IAA) and cytokinin. Shoots were produced over the entire surface of detached cotyledons ofPs. menziesii but predominantly on the adaxial surfaces of detached cotyledons ofPi. caribaea and the tips and adaxial surfaces of the cotyledons on the entire embryos of both species. Thus, inter-specific differences in the distribution of competent areas for adventitious bud production were detected in embryos. 相似文献

Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is key for normal epidermal morphogenesis, but little is known about its role in hair follicle stem cells and epidermal regeneration. Hair follicle stem cells are important contributors to newly formed epidermis following injury. We inactivated the Ilk gene in the keratin 15--expressing stem cell population of the mouse hair follicle bulge. Loss of ILK expression in these cells resulted in impaired cutaneous wound healing, with substantially decreased wound closure rates. ILK-deficient stem cells produced very few descendants that moved toward the epidermal surface and into the advancing epithelium that covers the wound. Furthermore, those few mutant cells that homed in the regenerated epidermis exhibited a reduced residence time. Paradoxically, ILK-deficient bulge stem cells responded to anagen growth signals and contributed to newly regenerated hair follicles during this phase of hair follicle growth. Thus ILK plays an important modulatory role in the normal contribution of hair follicle stem cell progeny to the regenerating epidermis following injury. 相似文献

The morphological changes in thin-layer tissues of Nicotiana labacum L. cv. Samsun, cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium with 1 μ M each of naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and benzyladenine (BA), were studied during the first 8 days of culture with light and scanning electron microscopy. The first three days of culture arc characterized by enlargement of all cells and cell divisions starling in the cortical parenchyma cells adjacent to the medium. Between days 3 and 6, epidermal and/or subepidermal cells start to divide, resulting in division centers, which lead to flower bud formation. The hormones NAA and BA in different concentrations affect the formation and distribution of flower buds, bud morphology and callus formation. BA influences particularly bud formation and bud morphology, while NAA affects callus formation in particular. In addition, polarity may occur in the formation of both callus and flower buds, the degree of which depends upon the hormone concentrations. 相似文献

As well as showing the existence, during the first stages of in vitro bud neoformation, of cell populations in a tissue composed of a single cell layer (stem epidermis of Torenia fournieri Lind), some new physiological characteristics of mitosis are defined. Most of the cells which divide during organogenesis synthesize their DNA between 20 and 48 hours of culture. On an epidermal strip (10 × 2.5 millimeters composed of about 5,500 cells) 20% of the original cells enter the S-phase. The first division takes place at the 20-hour stage after the entry into the S-phase of a cell population of about 25 cells. Almost none of the cells of this population divide. The greatest percentage of divisions occurs in cells which synthesize DNA near the 48-hour stage. The relation [Formula: see text] has a value of about 25 at the beginning of cell division (20 hours) and falls to a value of about 1.4 for cells which synthesize DNA near the 48-hour stage. A hypothesis of the existence of a mitotic stimulant in the epidermis is put forward; this stimulant, at first weak, increases progressively. 相似文献

Lateral organ position along roots and shoots largely determines plant architecture, and depends on auxin distribution patterns. Determination of the underlying patterning mechanisms has hitherto been complicated because they operate during growth and division. Here, we show by experiments and computational modeling that curvature of the Arabidopsis root influences cell sizes, which, together with tissue properties that determine auxin transport, induces higher auxin levels in the pericycle cells on the outside of the curve. The abundance and position of the auxin transporters restricts this response to the zone competent for lateral root formation. The auxin import facilitator, AUX1, is up-regulated by auxin, resulting in additional local auxin import, thus creating a new auxin maximum that triggers organ formation. Longitudinal spacing of lateral roots is modulated by PIN proteins that promote auxin efflux, and pin2,3,7 triple mutants show impaired lateral inhibition. Thus, lateral root patterning combines a trigger, such as cell size difference due to bending, with a self-organizing system that mediates alterations in auxin transport. 相似文献

The epidermis of terrestrial vertebrates is a stratified epithelium and forms an essential protective barrier. It is continually renewed, with dead corneocytes shed from the surface and replaced from a basal keratinocyte stem cell population. Whilst mouse is the prime model system used for epidermal studies, there is increasing employment of the zebrafish to analyse epidermis development and homeostasis, however the architecture and ontogeny of the epidermis in this system are incompletely described. In particular, it is unclear if adult zebrafish epidermis is derived entirely from the basal epidermal stem cell layer, as in the mouse, or if the most superficial keratinocyte layer is a remnant of the embryonic periderm. Furthermore, a relative paucity of cellular markers and genetic reagents to label and manipulate the basal epidermal stem cell compartment has hampered research. Here we show that the type I keratin, krtt1c19e, is a suitable marker of the basal epidermal layer and identify a krtt1c19e promoter fragment able to drive strong and specific expression in this cell type. Use of this promoter to express an inducible Cre recombinase allowed permanent labelling of basal cells during embryogenesis, and demonstrated that these cells do indeed generate keratinocytes of all strata in the adult epidermis. Further deployment of the Cre-Lox system highlighted the transient nature of the embryonic periderm. We thus show that the epidermis of adult zebrafish, as in the mouse, derives from basal stem cells, further expanding the similarities of epidermal ontogeny across vertebrates. Future use of this promoter will assist genetic analysis of basal keratinocyte biology in zebrafish. 相似文献

Previous investigations suggested that specific auxin spatial distribution due to auxin movements to particular embryonic regions was important for normal embryonic pattern formation. To gain information on the molecular mechanism(s) by which auxin acts to direct pattern formation in specific embryonic regions, the role of a plasma membrane (PM) ATPase was evaluated as downstream target of auxin in the present study. Western-blot analysis revealed that the PM H(+)-ATPase expression level was significantly increased by auxin in wheat (Triticum aestivum) embryos (two-three times increase). In bilaterally symmetrical embryos, the spatial expression pattern of the PM H(+)-ATPase correlates with the distribution pattern of the auxin analog, tritiated 5-azidoindole-3-acetic acid. A strong immunosignal was observed in the abaxial epidermis of the scutellum and in the epidermal cells at the distal tip of this organ. Pseudoratiometric analysis using a fluorescent pH indicator showed that the pH in the apoplast of the cells expressing the PM H(+)-ATPase was in average more acidic than the apoplastic pH of nonexpressing cells. Cellulose staining of living embryos revealed that cells of the scutellum abaxial epidermis expressing the ATPase were longer than the scutellum adaxial epidermal cells, where the protein was not expressed. Our data indicate that auxin activates the proton pump resulting in apoplastic acidification, a process contributing to cell wall loosening and elongation of the scutellum. Therefore, we suggest that the PM H(+)-ATPase is a component of the auxin-signaling cascade that may direct pattern formation in embryos. 相似文献

The epidermal cuticle characteristics of Sublepidodendron cf. xinjiangense Sun in Wutong formation of late Devonian from Yixing city of Jiangsu province were studied using the technique of fluorescence analysis. The stem cuticle extended over the leaf cushions and its interval zones, when the cuticle thickness was more than at the leaf cushions. The shape of the epidermal cells in the interval zones differed from that in the leaf cushions; in which the epidermal cells of the central parts of the interval zones appeared in the elongated polygons, with coincided cell stretch direction as the stem growth, and with slightly curve cell walls. The shape of cells in the interval zones near the leaf cushions was similar to that in the former but only one half in size. with straight cell walls. Here the cells extended gradually with a deflection toward the margin of the leaf cushions. The cushion cellsware equilaterl polygons with visible cell interspaces. No stoma was discovered in the epidermis of this species. 相似文献

Ribavirin (1-β- d -ribofuranosyl- 1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamide) increases starch accumulation in explants of Nicotiana tabacum L. ev. Xanthi nc and increases the number of meristematic zones; adventitious bud and shoot formation is significatntly increased. It overcomes auxin inhibition of bud and shoot formation in this system but studies on interaction with exogenous auxin and triiodobenzoic acid do not support the hypothesis that ribavirin acts directly on auxin metabolism. The results are discussed in relation to the induction and maintenance of permissive or receptive cell states in tobacco explant culture. 相似文献

Root caps (RCs) are the terminal tissues of higher plant roots. In the present study the factors controlling RC size, shape and structure were examined. It was found that this control involves interactions between the RC and an adjacent population of slowly dividing cells, the quiescent centre, QC. Using the polar auxin transport inhibitor 1-N-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), the effects of QC activation on RC gene expression and border cell release was characterized. Ethylene was found to regulate RC size and cell differentiation, since its addition, or the inhibition of its synthesis, affected RC development. The stimulation of cell division in the QC following NPA treatment was reversed by ethylene, and quiescence was re-established. Moreover, inhibition of both ethylene synthesis and auxin polar transport triggered a new pattern of cell division in the root epidermis and led to the appearance of supernumerary epidermal cell files with cap-like characteristics. The data suggest that the QC ensures an ordered internal distribution of auxin, and thereby regulates not only the planes of growth and division in both the root apex proper and the RC meristem, but also regulates cell fate in the RC. Ethylene appears to regulate the auxin redistribution system that resides in the RC. Experiments with Arabidopsis roots also reveal that ethylene plays an important role in regulating the auxin sink, and consequently cell fate in the RC. 相似文献

Plant organ growth is controlled by inter-cell-layer communication, which thus determines the overall size of the organism. The epidermal layer interfaces with the environment and participates in both driving and restricting growth via inter-cell-layer communication. However, it remains unknown whether the epidermis can send signals to internal tissue to limit cell proliferation in determinate growth. Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) are synthesized in the epidermis and used in the formation of cuticular wax. Here we found that VLCFA synthesis in the epidermis is essential for proper development of Arabidopsis thaliana. Wild-type plants treated with a VLCFA synthesis inhibitor and pasticcino mutants with defects in VLCFA synthesis exhibited overproliferation of cells in the vasculature or in the rib zone of shoot apices. The decrease of VLCFA content increased the expression of IPT3, a key determinant of cytokinin biosynthesis in the vasculature, and, indeed, elevated cytokinin levels. These phenotypes were suppressed in ipt3;5;7 triple mutants, and also by vasculature-specific expression of cytokinin oxidase, which degrades active forms of cytokinin. Our results imply that VLCFA synthesis in the epidermis is required to suppress cytokinin biosynthesis in the vasculature, thus fine-tuning cell division activity in internal tissue, and therefore that shoot growth is controlled by the interaction between the surface (epidermis) and the axis (vasculature) of the plant body. 相似文献

The spatial distributions of leaf expansion rate, cell division rate and cell size was examined under contrasting soil water conditions, evaporative demands and temperatures in a series of experiments carried out in either constant or naturally fluctuating conditions. They were examined in the epidermis and all leaf tissues. (1) Meristem temperature affected relative elongation rate by a constant ratio at all positions in the leaf. If expressed per unit thermal time, the distribution of relative expansion rate was independent of temperature and was similar in all experiments with low evaporative demand and no water deficit. This provides a reference distribution, characteristic of the studied genotype, to which any distribution in stressed plants can be compared. (2) Evaporative demand and soil water deficit affected independently the distribution of relative elongation rate and had near-additive effects. For a given stress, a nearly constant difference was observed, at all positions of the leaf, between the relative elongation rates of stressed plants and those of control plants. This caused a reduction in the length of the zone with tissue elongation. (3) Methods for calculating cell division rate in the epidermis and in all leaf tissues are proposed and discussed. In control plants, the zone with cell division was 30 mm and 60 mm long in the epidermis and in whole tissues, respectively. Both this length and relative division rate were reduced by soil water deficit. The size of epidermal and of mesophyll cells was nearly unaffected in the leaf zone with both cell division and tissue expansion, suggesting that water deficit affects tissue expansion rate and cell division rate to the same extent. Conversely, cell size of epidermis and mesophyll were reduced by water deficit in mature parts of the leaf. 相似文献
