濒危物种灰叶胡杨的大孢子发生和雌配子体发育

用石蜡切片法对濒危物种灰叶胡杨的大孢子发生和雌配子体发育过程进行观察研究.结果显示,灰叶胡杨雌蕊由三心皮构成,侧膜胎座,胚珠为倒生型,有18～21列;发育早期的胚珠为双珠被,厚珠心;当外珠被发育至与内珠被处于同一水平时,内珠被便开始退化,故成熟胚珠为单珠被;孢原细胞1个,并且自表皮下2层处分化;大孢子母细胞由孢原细胞分裂后形成的造孢细胞直接发育而来;大孢子四分体直线形排列,合点端的大孢子为功能大孢子,蓼型胚囊;在胚囊发育过程中珠孔端的珠心组织退化.根据开花物候不同阶段花的形态特征,可以初步判断灰叶胡杨大孢子发生和雌配子体的发育进程.

Megasporogenesis,megagametogenesis, and embryogenesis in Dendrobium nobile (Orchidaceae)

The orchid reproductive strategy, including the formation of numerous tiny seeds, is achieved by the elimination of some stages in the early plant embryogenesis. In this study, we documented in detail the formation of the maternal tissues (the nucellus and integuments), the structures of female gametophyte (megaspores, chalazal nuclei, synergids, polar nuclei), and embryonic structures in Dendrobium nobile. The ovary is unilocular, and the ovule primordia are formed in the placenta before the pollination. The ovule is medionucellate: the two-cell postament and two rows of nucellar cells persist until the death of the inner integument. A monosporic eight-nucleated embryo sac is developed. After the fertilization, the most common central cell nucleus consisted of two joined but not fused polar nuclei. The embryogenesis of D. nobile is similar to the Caryophyllad-type, and it is characterized by the formation of all embryo cells from the apical cell (ca) of a two-celled proembryo. The only exception is that there is no formation of the radicle and/or cotyledons. The basal cell (cb) does not divide during the embryogenesis, gradually transforming into the uninuclear suspensor. Then the suspensor goes through three main stages: it starts with an unbranched cell within the embryo sac, followed by a branched stage growing into the integuments, and it ends with the cell death. The stage-specific development of the female gametophyte and embryo of D. nobile is discussed.

     

罗汉果大孢子发生及雌配子体发育与花部形态、胚珠变化的关系

为弄清罗汉果(Siraitia grosvenorii)大孢子发生、雌配子体发育过程与花部形态特征、胚珠的关系,运用石蜡切片法对罗汉果子房进行了显微观察。结果表明,罗汉果的胚珠倒生,双珠被,厚珠心,大孢子四分体呈线型排列,合点端一个大孢子分化为功能大孢子,成熟胚囊为蓼型。花蕾形态、胚珠变化与大孢子发生、雌配子体的发育时期具有一定相关性,当子房长度为7.0 mm≤L<9.0 mm,珠心呈椭圆形时,约有45.83%的大孢子母细胞处于减数分裂时期。因此,依据罗汉果花部形态可有效确定大孢子发生与雌配子体发育的时期。     

Immunolocalization of arabinogalactan proteins inAmaranthus hypochondriacus L. ovules

Summary Amaranthus hypochondriacus ovules are of the crassinucellate type, having several layers of nucellus cells between the micropyle and the embryo sac through which pollen tubes have to penetrate. The ultrastructural features of the micropylar nucellus cells appear to reflect cells with high metabolic activity. With the monoclonal antibodies MAC207 and JIM8 (against arabinogalactan proteins) we have shown that the presence of the two epitopes was different in the gametophytic tissues and embryo sac. The young embryo and suspensor cells are reactive only to Mab JIM8. The selective presence and localization of these two epitopes was also demonstrated in the micropylar nucellus cells. The expression of these arabinogalactan proteins in this ovule seems to be closely aligned with the pathway of the pollen tube, possibly providing directional guides for tube growth inside the ovule.

The embryo sac of Cynara cardunculus: ultrastructure of the development and localisation of the aspartic proteinase cardosin B

Cynara cardunculus is a native plant with flowers that are used traditionally in the manufacture of ewe’s cheese in the Iberian Peninsula. Milk clotting ability of the plant is attributed to the high concentrations of aspartic proteinases (APs), named cardosins, found in the flowers. Although these enzymes are well characterised on a molecular and biochemical basis, the biological role of the majority of plant APs is yet unassigned. We suspected APs play an important role in ovule function, and we characterised the maturation of the ovules of C. cardunculus and its Polygonum-type embryo sacs. The internal layer of the integument differentiates into an endothelium as described for other Asteraceae, with differentiation of two nucellar layers, a podium and a hypostase coinciding with the onset of pollen receptivity. In flowering plants, programmed cell death (PCD) events are essential for the success of nucellar maturation and consequent differentiation of a fully functional embryo sac. In C. cardunculus, nucellar PCD is integral to the maturation of the embryo sac, which in turn is closely correlated with the accumulation of the AP cardosin B specifically in the hypostase. The onset of cardosin B expression temporally coincides with the degeneration of nucellar cells. In fully mature embryo sacs, cardosin B is localised in both the hypostase and epistase, two regions that differentiate through PCD. Thus, cardosin B localisations closely correlate with events of PCD in the nucellus of C. cardunculus suggesting involvement in ovule and embryo sac development and further suggest the biological significance of APs like cardosin B, in this particular process. This work contributes new data to the plant AP research field and indicates an involvement of cardosin B in the PCD-dependent degeneration of the nucellus.     

多花地宝兰胚囊和胚发育的细胞学研究

为探讨多花地宝兰(Geodorum recurvum)胚胎发育的系统分类学意义,采用石蜡制片法对多花地宝兰胚囊和胚的发育进行解剖学观察。结果表明,在开花前,多花地宝兰胚珠原基发育缓慢,开花授粉后胚珠原基快速发育成"树状二杈分枝结构",随后在"分枝结构"末端形成孢原细胞,开始胚囊发育。多花地宝兰的胚囊发育属于单孢蓼型胚囊,胚珠具有双层珠被。孢原细胞形成后,经过细胞膨大延长发育形成胚囊母细胞,胚囊母细胞经过减数分裂形成线性四分体,在珠孔端形成1个功能大孢子,功能大孢子经过3次有丝分裂形成8核胚囊。多花地宝兰的胚发育具有藜型和紫苑型两种方式。双受精完成后,多花地宝兰合子进行一次橫裂后形成基细胞和顶细胞;基细胞经过多次分裂形成细胞团,细胞团中的细胞向不同方向膨大延长形成多个胚柄细胞;顶细胞有两种分裂方式,一种是横裂形成藜型胚,一种是纵裂形成紫苑型胚。因此,推测多花地宝兰在兰科植物系统分类学上属于较为原始种。
