Developmental patterns in four species of Ceramiaceae were determined using excised thallus apices grown under a range of light periods. Models of thallus development and organization based on these patterns are presented. Increased rates of apical cell division, greater growth of apical fragments and increased average cell size were found with increasing number of hours light per day between 8–16 and 16–8 h. No aspect of growth investigated was associated with photoperiodic phenomena, and growth occuring during the light break (8-7.5-1-7.5 h) was intermediate between that in 8–16 and 12–12 h. Three patterns of cell elongation were found in the four species in which (1) cell age, (2) cell age and position and (3) cell age, cell position and light period determined cell length at different axial cell positions. Elongation was followed within cells, along axes ofAntithamnion spirographidis for plants grown under different day lengths. Three regions of development were found along main axes: (1) an apical region in which basipetal expansion was greater than acropetal expansion. (2) a zone of stability with equal elongation in apical and basal growth region of cells, and (3) a basal region with greater acropetal expansion. With increasing daylength, the zone of stability was extended to greater ranges of cell length. 相似文献

The rate of transition from one- to two-dimensional growth of fernAdiantum gametophytes under white light depends on the age of gametophyte cultured under red light. When gametophytes were cultured
for longer period under red light, the rate of transition decreased and the number of abnormal gametophytes increased. Although
the first step of the transition was the first longitudinal cell division following the two transverse ones (Wada and Furuya,
1970), the time-lapse-video study revealed that the apical cell of protonemata became flattened in the plane perpendicular
to the incident ray of white light before the first longitudinal cell division. Analytical study of growing part of the apical
cell with grains of activated charcoal as markers revealed that the apical cell flattening occurred evenly throughout the
equatorial circumference of the cell even in the shaded side of the protonemata as well as in the side irradiated with white
light. 相似文献

Cell division contributing to longitudinal growth of the shoot apex was investigated inChenopodium rubrum in segments marked by the axils of leaf primordia. Plants treated with two short days (16h of darkness and 8h of light) were
compared with two non-induced controls (cultivated in continuous light or treated by alternations of 8 h of darkness and 4
h of light for two days). During the short-day treatments the rate of cell division contributing to the longitudinal growth
decreases in all segments of the shoot apex irrespective of whether the darkness was given in inductive or non-inductive photoperiods.
The rate of cell division contributing to longitudinal growth increases in the upper internodes of the shoot apex after the
termination of the photoperiodic treatment and transfer of the plants to continuous light. However, cell division remains
inhibited in the lowest segment of the shoot apex. This inhibition in the differentiating parts of the shoot apical meristem
is a direct consequence of photoperiodic induction. It is supposed that this inhibition is related to evocation similarly
as the well-known phenomenon of stimulation of cell division in the apical dome. 相似文献

Rates of Cell Division in the Shoot Apical Meristem of Pisum 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The relative rates of cell division in different regions ofthe pea shoot apical meristem were obtained by measuring theincrease in the numbers of metaphases following applicationof colchicine to the plants. Absolute values for the rates ofcell division could be calculated since the average rate ofcell division for the whole apex was known. Measurements ofthe rates of cell division were obtained at defined intervalsduring the course of a single plastochron. Within each regionof the apex the rate of cell division did not change more thanabout two-fold throughout the plastochron. There was very littleor no increase in the rate of cell division associated withleaf initiation. The formation of a leaf primordium and thesubsequent growth of the apical dome apparently result fromchanges in the direction of growth rather than changes in therates of growth. Three main regions were discernible withinthe apical meristem: a region with a slow rate of cell divisionin the apical dome, a region of a faster rate of cell divisionat the base of the apical dome and at the site of initiationof procambial strands, and a region of an intermediate rateof cell division in the newly initiated leaf primordium andthe adjacent part of the shoot axis. 相似文献

Summary In protonemata of Pteris vittata grown for 6 days under red light, which brings about a marked depression of mitotic activity, the first division of the cells was synchronously induced by irradiation with blue light, and subsequent cell divisions were also promoted. The peak of the mitotic index reached a maximum of about 70% at 11.5 hrs, and 90% of all protonemata divided between the 11th and 13th hour after exposure to blue light. When the protonemata were continuously irradiated with blue light, synchronism of the next cell division in the apical cells decreased to a mitotic index of about 30%, and further divisions occurred randomly.The synchronization of cell division was found to be a combined effect of red and blue light. Red light maintained the cells in the early G1 phase of the cell cycle; blue light caused the cells to progress synchronously through the cell cycle, with an average duration of 12 hr. By using 3H-thymidine, the average duration of the G1, S, G2 and M phases was determined to be about 3.5, 5, 2.5 and 1 hr, respectively.Synchronous cell division could be induced in older protonemata grown for 6 to 12 days in red light and even in protonemata having two cells. It could be repeated in the same protonema by reexposure to red light for 24 hrs or more before another irradiation with blue light. 相似文献

Cell division patterns in Thalassiosira fluviatilis grown in a cyclostat were analyzed as a function of temperature, photoperiod, nutrient limitation and average cell size of the population. Typical cell division patterns in populations doubling more than once per day had multiple peaks in division rate each day, with the lowest rates always being greater than zero. Division bursts occurred in both light and dark periods with relative intensities depending on growth conditions. Multiple peaks in division rate were also found, when population growth rates were reduced to less than one doubling per day by lowering temperature, nutrients, or photoperiod and the degree of division phasing was not enhanced. Temperature and nutrient limitation shifted the timing of the major division burst relative to the light/dark cycle. Average cell volume of the inoculum was found to be a significant determinant of the average population growth rate and the timing and magnitude of the peaks in division rate. The results are interpreted in the context of a cell cycle model in which generation times are “quantized” into values separated by a constant time interval. 相似文献

Time-lapse observations of filamentous fern gametophytes were used to evaluate whether the plane of cell division is referable to the plane of minimal surface area before and during the transition to two-dimensional growth. Cell dimensions of the apical cell were related to the length/width ratios associated with minimal area in the transverse plane vs. longitudinal plane, by modeling the apical cell as a hemisphere subtended by a cylinder. Our working hypothesis predicts that filamentous growth is perpetuated by an apical cell geometry that makes the transverse division plane the orientation of minimal surface area, whereas the transition to two-dimensional growth (longitudinal division of the apical cell) occurs once the longitudinal plane becomes the position of minimal surface area. The predictions of this hypothesis are fulfilled regardless of variations in light intensity and light quality, the presence of regulators of metabolism, or whether the experimental perturbation causes a corresponding selective inhibition of the transition to two-dimensional growth. Thus, the control of the plane of cell division in this system seems to depend on thermodynamic considerations of surface area. Furthermore, we favor the conclusion that the role of the genome in the transition to two-dimensional growth involves its influence on apical cell dimensions rather than the induction of specific genes for specific morphogenetic mRNAs. 相似文献

The average amount of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) per cell was measured in steady-state cultures of Escherichia coli B/r grown at 37 C in glucose-limited chemostats or in batch cultures in the exponential growth phase as maintained with one of several carbon sources. Within experimental errors, DNA content was dependent only on growth rate and independent of the type of culture, the carbon source, or the addition of growth factors. The amount of DNA per cell increased continuously with growth rate over the range of 0.02 to 3 divisions per hour. The data over the entire range of growth rates are in agreement with a constant time for a single replication point to traverse the entire genome, 47 min, and with cell division following 25 min after termination of replication. The measured amount of DNA per genome was 4.2 x 10(-15) g (or 2.5 x 10(9) daltons). 相似文献

In Bacillus subtilis the deoxyribonucleic acid content and the extent of cell division during inhibition of chromosome replication increased as a function of the average cell mass, independent of the growth rate. At each growth rate, mass, deoxyribonucleic acid, and residual division varied in different cultures. The variation is consistent with a large variability in the D period. At growth rates higher than 1.5 doublings per h at 37 degrees C, the change in D accounts for the growth rate dependence of the mass and deoxyribonucleic acid content. 相似文献

Summary The pattern of cotyledon development in three varieties of Pisum sativum has been defined in terms of cell number, DNA and RNA content and chromatin, bound RNA polymerase activity. Variation was observed in the relative periods of growth by cell division and cell expansion between the three varieties. The mean DNA content per cotyledon cell during growth by cell expansion increased to approximately 50C in one variety, 30C in the second variety and 15C in the third variety. The pattern of chromatin-bound RNA polymerase activity during development suggested that some of the DNA above the 2C level may contribute to RNA synthesis in two of the three varieties studied. In the third variety the RNA polymerase activity decreases throughout the phase of increase in DNA per cell. The chromatin-bound RNA polymerase activity per cell was correlated with the rate of RNA increase per cell. 相似文献

Nuclear behavior during branch formation in a centrifugedAdiantum protonema and the nuclear polarity
Masamitsu Wada 《Journal of plant research》1995,108(4):501-509
A new branch was induced on the side wall of fern protonema by cell centrifugation and subsequent polarized red light irradiation
after the induction of cell division under white light. Nuclear behavior during the branch formation was analyzed.
Immediately after cell division, the two daughter nuclei moved away from the division site in both red and dark conditions.
Under continuous irradiation with polarized red light, cell swelling occurred as an early step of branching near the cell
dividing wall, even though the nucleus was localized far from the branching site at the beginning of the swelling. After a
new branch started to grow, the nucleus returned to the branching site and moved into the new branch from its basipetal end.
When a protonema incubated in the dark was centrifuged again acropetally or basipetally just before the irradiation of polarized
red light, the rate of apical growth or branch formation was increased, respectively. Moreover, growth of a branched protonema
was altered from its former apex or from the branch again by dislocating the nucleus acropetally or basipetally by centrifugation,
respectively. These facts suggest that the nucleus has no polarity physiologically, i.e. head and tail, namely either end
of the spindle-shaped nucleus can be the nuclear front in a tip-growing protonema. 相似文献

The protonema of mosses Ceratodon purpureus and Pottia intermedia is negatively gravitropic in darkness and grows on the substrate surface under illumination. However, the putative mechanisms of these growth responses are not well understood so far. For gravitropism, sedimentation of amyloplasts has been widely assumed to be the first step of the signal transduction chain. This model was supported by numerous observations where amyloplasts' number or size in a protonema apical cell correlated with its gravisensitivity. Unlike multicellular graviperceptive organs, a protonema apical cell is the same site for both of gravity and light perception and realization of growth movements. In addition, red light is known to change the cell responses to gravity. Therefore, we analysed the influence of red light on the events associated with graviperception and growth movements of protonema apical cells, namely: plastid behavior, size, and number, starch content, chlorophyll fluorescence intensity and alpha-amylase activity, under gravistimulation of dark-grown protonema. 相似文献

When filamentous protonemata of Adiantum capillus-veneris L. precultured under continuous red light were transferred to the dark, the apical cell divided about 24 to 36 hours thereafter. The time of the cell division was delayed for several hours by a brief exposure to far red light given before the dark incubation. The effect of far red light was reversed by a small dose of red light given immediately after the preceding far red light. The effects of red and far red light were repeatedly reversible, indicating that the timing of cell division was regulated by a phytochrome system. When a brief irradiation with blue light was given before the dark incubation, the cell division occurred after 17 to 26 hours in darkness. A similar red far red reversible effect was also observed in the timing of the blue light-induced cell division. Thus, the timing of cell division appeared to be controlled by phytochrome and a blue light-absorbing pigment. 相似文献

Chloroplast proliferation was investigated inAdiantum protonemata growing under continuous red light. Cell division is absent when cells are grown under red light. The chloroplast
number increases as the cell length increases, therefore the chloroplasts divide in the absence of cell division. Chloroplasts
in the basal part of the filamentous protonemal cell migrate gradually toward the cell apex, but there is no large net migration
from the tip to the base or vice versa, indicating that chloroplast division takes place in the apical part of the protonemata.
Chloroplast number in the apical 100 μm was maintained at about 200 during cell growth at least over eight days. The chloroplasts
were either dumbbell- or ellipsoid-shaped. Dumbbell-shaped chloroplasts are abundant everywhere in a protonema, ranging from
30 to 50% of the total chloroplasts. The dumbbell-shaped chloroplasts attached to or very close to the plasma membrane seem
to be the ones that are dividing but the dumbbell-shaped ones in the other regions do not divide. These data support the hypothesis
that a signal from the plasma membrane induces the dumbbell-shaped chloroplasts to divide. 相似文献

Zinc (Zn) distribution over tissues and organs of maize (Zea mays L.) seedlings and its action on root growth, cell division, and cell elongation were studied. Two-day-old seedlings were
incubated in the 0.25-strength Hoagland solution containing 2 or 475 μM Zn(NO3)2. Zn toxicity was assessed after the inhibition of primary root increment during the first and second days of incubation.
The content of Zn was determined by atomic absorption spectrometry in the apical (the first centimeter from the root tip)
and basal (the third centimeter from the kernel) root parts. Zn distribution in various tissues was studied by histochemical
methods, using a metallochromic indicator zincon and fluorescent indicator Zinpyr-1 and light and confocal scanning fluorescent
light microscopy, respectively. To evaluate Zn effects on growth processes, the average length of the meristem; the length
of fully elongated cells; the number of meristematic cells in the cortex row; and duration of the cell cycle were measured.
When the Zn concentration in the solution was high, the Zn content per weight unit was higher in the basal root part due to
its accumulation in lateral root primordial. Zn was also accumulated in both the meristem apoplast and cell protoplasts. In
the basal and middle root parts, Zn was detected essentially in all tissues predominantly in the apoplast. Zn inhibited both
cell division and elongation. Under Zn influence, the size of the meristem and the number of meristematic cells decreased,
which was determined by an increase in the cell cycle duration. The length of the fully elongated cells was also reduced.
A comparison of Zn distribution and growth-suppressing activity with other heavy metals studied earlier allows a conclusion
that toxic action of heavy metals is mainly determined by physical and chemical properties of their ions and specific patterns
of their transport and distribution. As a result, two basic processes determining root growth, e.g., cell division and elongation,
could be affected differently. 相似文献

PHOTOCONTROL OF THE ORIENTATION OF CELL DIVISION IN ADIANTUM. I. EFFECTS OF THE DARK AND RED PERIODS IN THE APICAL CELL OF GAMETOPHYTES 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
When protonemata of Adiantum capillus-veneris L. which had been grown filamentously under continuous red light were transferred to continuous white light, the apical cell divided transversely twice, but the 3rd division was longitudinal. An intervening period of darkness lasting from 0 to 90 hr either between the 1st and the 2nd cell division or between the 2nd and the 3rd one did not affect the number of protonemata in which the 3rd cell division was longitudinal. The insertion of red light instead of darkness greatly decreased the percentage of 1st longitudinal divisions occurring at the 3rd division, and increased the number of transverse divisions. Fifty percent reduction of induction of 1st longitudinal division was caused by ca. 50 hr exposure to red light between 1st and 2nd division and by ca. 20 hr between 2nd and 3rd division, and total loss was induced by an exposure of ca. 100 hr or longer to red light in the former and by ca. 40 hr longer in the latter. Thus, by using an appropriate intervening dark period or exposure to red light, the orientation and timing of cell division could be controlled in apical cell of the fern protonemata. 相似文献
