Functional sieve elements are present year-round in the secondary phloem of the trunk of Acer negundo L., the box elder tree. Judging from numerous collections made between May, 1962, and May, 1964, the seasonal cycle of phloem development is as follows: cambial activity and new phloem differentiation begin in late March or early April; xylem differentiation begins about a month later and is completed in most trees in late August. At the time of cessation of cambial activity most of the relatively wide sieve elements of the current season's increment are mature. However, numerous groups of narrow, immature sieve elements and companion cells located on the outer margin of the cambial zone do not reach maturity until fall and winter. By the time of cambial reactivation in spring, most, if not all, of these narrow elements are mature. Some of the sieve elements which reach maturity either shortly after cessation of cambial activity or during dormancy become non-functional within 6 weeks after resumption of cambial activity in spring, while others remain functional until mid-August. For the phloem increment of a given year, cessation of function begins in September with the accumulation of definitive callose on the sieve plates of the first-formed sieve elements and spreads to all but the last-formed ones by the end of December.  相似文献

Evert , R. F. (U. Wisconsin, Madison.) The cambium and seasonal development of the phloem in Pyrus malus. Amer. Jour. Bot. 50(2): 149–159. Illus. 1963.—The cambium in apple consists of several layers of cells at all times, and practically all cambial cells divide periclinally one or more times before undergoing differentiation. The cambial initials do not seem to be in a uniform, uniseriate layer. Judged by collections made during 2 seasons (August, 1958–October, 1960), the seasonal cycle of phloem development is as follows. Early in April, cells in the outer margin of the cambial zone begin to differentiate into sieve elements. At approximately the same time, activity (division) commences throughout the cambial zone. By the end of July or early August, sieve-element differentiation is completed. Cessation of function begins in either late September or in October with the formation of definitive callose on the sieve areas of sieve elements in the outer margin of the functional phloem. By late November, all sieve elements are devoid of contents and most of their companion cells collapsed. Phloem differentiation precedes xylem differentiation by approximately a month and a half; xylem and phloem differentiation cease almost simultaneously; and fiber-sclereid development is coincident with the period of maximal xylem differentiation.  相似文献

The cambium in black locust consists of several layers of cells at all times. Cambial reactivation (division) is preceded by a decrease in density of cambial cell protoplasts and cell wall thickening but not by cell enlargement. During the resumption of cambial activity, periclinal divisions occur throughout the cambial zone. Early divisions contribute largely to the phloem side. The period of greatest cambial activity coincides with early wood formation. Judged by numerous collections made during two seasons (October, 1960-October, 1962) the seasonal cycle of phloem development is as follows. Phloem differentiation begins in early April, ends in late September. The amount of phloem produced is quite variable (range: 1-10 bands of sieve elements per year). Cessation of function begins with the accumulation of definitive callose in the first-formed sieve elements and spreads to those more recently formed. By late November all but the last-formed sieve elements are collapsed. All sieve elements are collapsed by mid-winter and before the resumption of new phloem production in spring. Phloem differentiation precedes xylem differentiation by at least 1 week, and apparently functional sieve elements are present 3 weeks before new functional vessel elements. Xylem and phloem production ends simultaneously in most trees.  相似文献

In Juniperus californica, all sieve cells of the previous season's phloem growth increment overwinter in a mature state. Initiation of cambial activity begins in early March and, by the end of March, the oldest sieve cells that overwintered lose their contents and die. By mid-April, even the youngest sieve cells of the previous season's growth increment have lost their contents. The period of greatest cambial activity begins in the last half of April and continues through May. With the slowing of cambial activity in June, callose begins to collect on the sieve areas of the first-formed sieve cells of the new increment. By July, the cambium and phloem are in a dormant state. Initiation of phloem production precedes that of the xylem by about 1 month. Production of new xylem and phloem ceases simultaneously in July.  相似文献

Circular patches of bark were surgically isolated on the sides of sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) trees at breast height at various times during the dormant and growing seasons. Subsequently, samples of wood and attached bark were taken from isolated and control sites to determine the effects of isolation of the bark on cambial activity and xylem and phloem development. In control sites cambial activity and xylem and phloem development occurred normally. Isolation of bark during the dormant season (in November, February, or March) prevented initiation of cambial activity and xylem and phloem development in isolated areas of half of the trees. Varying degrees of cambial activity (periclinal divisions) occurred in the remaining isolated areas, but normal cambial activity and xylem and phloem development were prevented. Isolation of bark after initiation of cambial activity and phloem differentiation, but prior to initiation of xylem differentiation, resulted in the formation of very narrow xylem and phloem increments with atypically short vessel members and sieve-tube members, respectively. The xylem increments consisted primarily of parenchyma cells. Isolation of bark after initiation of xylem differentiation resulted in curtailment of secondary wall formation in the last-formed part of many increments. The last-formed vessel members of all these xylem increments were atypically short. Similarly, the last formed sieve-tube members of corresponding phloem increments were atypically short. The atypically short cells in the xylem and phloem of isolated areas reflected the effect of isolation on the cambial region, viz., the subdivision of all fusiform cells into strands of cells. Ultimately, the strands of short fusiform cells lapsed into maturity, leaving only strands of parenchymatous elements between xylem and phloem.  相似文献

Early in April of 1987, cells in an undifferentiated state which overwintered on the phloem side of the cambial zone in the branch of Pterocarya stenoptera began to differentiate into merebets of phloem. Cambium divided actively in mid-April and ceased to decide by early-Novembet. Five to eleven bands of fibers alternating with the bands of sieve tubes, companion cells and phloem parenchyma cells produced every year. By mid to late April, new xylem differentiation began. Phloem and xylem differentiation ceased almost simultaneously. Functional sieve tube elements were present all the year round in the phloem. During winter, most sieve tubes produced in the current year ceased functioning, leaving only the zone of functional sieve tube of several rows of cells in width with open pores in the sieve plates. These sieve tubes did not collapse until mid-May. In October, several rows of partially differentiated sieve elements appeared near the cambial zone. They still possessed nuclei. The companion cells had produced but no P-protein. They matured during April of the following year and collapsed by July to September. The life span of sieve elements extended for 8 months at the most. In winter, there were less functional sieve tubes in the branch. This may be one of the reasons that only few Kerria yunnanensis survive on the branch of Pterocarya stenoptera.  相似文献

Corm tissue of Isoetes muricata Dur. was fixed in glutaraldehyde and postfixed in osmium tetroxide for electron microscopy. Very young secondary sieve elements can be distinguished from contiguous cambial cells by their distinctive plastids and by the presence of crystalline and/or fibrillar proteinaceous material in dilated cisternae of rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). At maturity, the sieve elements are lined by the plasmalemma and a parietal, anastomosing network of smooth ER. Degenerate nuclei persist in all mature sieve elements. In addition, mature sieve elments contain plastids and mitochondria. Sieve-area pores are present in all walls. The lateral meristem of I. muricata consists of 2–3 layers of cells year-round. Judging from numerous collections made between October 1972 and July 1975, new sieve-element differentiation precedes cambial activity by about a month. Early in May, 1–2 cells immediately adjacent to already mature sieve elements differentiate directly into sieve elements without prior division. In early June, at about the time sieve-element differentiation is completed, cambial division begins. Division is sporadic, not uniform throughout the meristem. Dormancy callose accumulates in the secondary sieve elements in late October, and is removed in early May, at about the same time new sieve-element differentiation begins. Cells of the dormant cambium are characterized by the presence of numerous small vacuoles and large quantities of storage materials, including lipid droplets, starch grains, and tannin. By contrast, active cambial cells contain few large vacuoles with little or no tannin, and they have little storage material.  相似文献

Methods of sampling and sections preparaction were the same as reported previously. Except that sampling was made at monthly intervals between May 20 and July 30, then at 7–14 day-intervals between July 30 and October 14, and then at monthly intervals between October 14 and March 25 in the next year. The stored starch in various tissues was stained with PAS reaction. During active period of cambium in Broussonetia papyrifera after July 30, the cell layers of immature xylem and phloem decreased progressively, and the formation of mature xylem and phloem increased rapidly. The formation of late wood started early in August, formation of xylem ceased after September 5, followed by ceasation of phloem formation about 1.5 months later. Increasing and decreasing of stored starch were closely related to the periodicity of cambial activity during the year. Starch grains decreased progressively after cambial activity was resumed in early spring until they disappeared in all the stem tissues. Then, starch accumulated progressively again after cambial activity slowed down, particularly after the ceasation of xylem formation. However, after the formation of phloem had ceased, the stored starch once again disappeared progressively until the end of December, and accumulated again. Such changes might be related to the transition of cambium activity involving two periods of dormancy.  相似文献

构树形成层的活动周期及其淀粉贮量的变化   总被引:5,自引:2,他引:5  
在构树(Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) Vent.)形成层活动周期中,每年7月末以后,未成熟的木质部和韧皮部逐渐减少,成熟的木质部和韧皮部急剧增多。8月初开始分化晚材。进入9月后木质部的形成逐渐停止,而一个半月以后才停止形成韧皮部。淀粉贮量的消长与形成层的活动周期有很强的相关关系。早春形成层恢复活动后,淀粉贮量逐渐减少直至消失。尔后,形成层活动减慢,特别是木质部分化停止后,淀粉又开始积累。当韧皮部分化也停止后,淀粉又消失,直至翌年1月才重新积累,这似乎与两个休眠期的转化有关  相似文献

The seasonal development of phloem in the stems of Siberian larch (Larix sibirica Ldb.) was studied over two seasons on 50–60-year-old trees growing in a natural stand in the Siberian forest-steppe zone. Trees at the age of 20–25 years were used to study metabolites in differentiating and mature phloem elements, cambial zone, and radially growing xylem cells in the periods of early and late wood formation. The development of the current-year phloem in the stems of 50–60-year-old trees started, depending on climatic conditions, in the second-third decades of May, 10–20 days before the xylem formation, and ended together with the shoot growth cessation in late July. Monitoring of the seasonal activity of cambium producing phloem sieve cells and the duration of their differentiation compared to the xylem derivatives in the cambium demonstrated that the top production of phloem and xylem cells could coincide or not coincide during the season, while their differentiation activity was always in antiphase. Sieve cells in the early phloem are separated from those in the late phloem by a layer of tannin-containing cells, which are formed in the period when late xylem formation starts. The starch content in the structural elements of phloem depends on the state of annual xylem layer development. The content of low molecular weight carbohydrates, amino acids, organic acids, and phenols in phloem cells, cambial zone, and xylem derivatives of the cambium depends on the cell type and developmental stage as well as on the type of forming wood (early or late) differing by the cell wall parameters and, hence, by the requirement for assimilates. Significant differences in the dynamics of substances per dry weight and cell were observed during cell development.  相似文献

Circular patches of bark were surgically isolated on the sides of trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) trees at breast height at various times during the dormant and growing seasons. Subsequently, samples of wood and attached bark were taken from isolated and control sites to determine the effects of isolation of the bark on cambial activity and xylem and phloem development. In control trees cambial activity and xylem and phloem development occurred normally. Isolation of bark during the dormant season (in November, February, or March) did not prevent initiation of cambial activity and of phloem differentiation in spring but continued normal cambial activity and phloem developmented were prevent. Xylem differentiation was essentially prevented by isolation of tissues during the dormant season. The ultimate effect of isolation of the bark on the cambium, either during the dormant season or during the growing season, was subdivision of all fusiform cambial cells into strands of parenchymatous elements; the ultimate effect on the newly formed phloem was early death of the sieve elements. The most conspicuous effect of isolation of the bark after xylem differentiation had begun was the curtailment of secondary wall formation. Shortening of cells of the cambial region was reflected in the length of the vessel members which differentiated from such cells. These results indicate that normal cambial activity and xylem and phloem development require a supply of currently translocated regulatory substances from the shoots.  相似文献

Summary Only one or two layers of sieve cells of the previous year's phloem in lateral branches of Larix decidua persist as fully mature cells. Immature sieve cells or cambial derivatives that have not completed differentiation may also over-winter. Periclinal cell divisions of the vascular cambium were first observed by mid-April. During the short period of greatest cambium activity (mid-April to mid-May), the early phloem is laid down. Late phloem is formed over a much longer period, from mid-May to late September. Microautoradiography revealed that only mature sieve cells of the early phloem are involved in translocation of 14C assimilates in June. The fine structure of actively translocating sieve cells is described. The impact of structure on long-distance transport of assimilates is discussed.  相似文献

Periodicity of cambium activity, seasonal changes of the secondary phloem and longevity of sieve tube in main trunk of Dalbergia balansae Prain and in the twig of D. szemaoensis Prain were observed. The results are as follows: 1. All cambia fall under the category of storied type. 2. In D. balansae cambial activity begins in late April and ends in early November. Phloem differentiation is completed by early November. Xylem differentiation ceases in December. In D. szemaoensis cambial activity continues from mid-April to late October. Phloem and xylem differentiation ceases by late November. 3. The width of functional phloem zone is maximal (400—600 μm) in autumn and minimal (200—370 μm) in February to April. In overwintering, functional sieve tube elements contain P-protein, and the pores of sieve plate are open. It could be one of the reasons that these two species are promising host trees of Kerria yunnanensis during winter. 4. The longevity of sieve tubes in D. balansae and D. szemaoensis last 8—12 months and 9—11 months respectively. 5. During dormancy of cambium, the parenchyma cells of the secondary phloem contain large quantities of starch grains and calcium oxalate crystals, which decrease as cambium becomes active and remain little or even non visualized in summer.  相似文献

The cambium of Pinus bungeana Zucc. resumed its activities in early April with cell proliferation and increase in immature xylem and phloem cells. Some mature xylem cells occurred dunng the last ten days of April. The xylem and phloem were rapidly formed after May. The late- wood was firstly formed in the beginning of June. It ceased to produce new xylem in early August, mid phloem cells in mid-September. The seasonal changes of polysaccharide grain content in the tissues of P. bungeana evidenced significant correlation with the annual cycle of cambial activity. Polysaccharide grains continued to increase before and after cambial reactivity and then decreased gradaally from June onwards after the late-wood had been firstly formed, until almost disappeared by next January, and again were gradually accumulated after March. Isoenzymic study revealed only one band of amylase after cambium reactivity, three peculiar bands after ceasing to produce xylem, and another two peculiar bands that occurred in early December. These 5 bands all disappeared after reactivity of cambium.  相似文献

Stem flattening in Rhynchosia pyramidalis (Fabaceae) is achieved by the development of crescent-shaped successive cambia on two opposite sides of the stem (referred hereafter as distal side). Other lateral sides of the stem (adjacent to supporting host and its opposite side, referred as proximal sides) usually possess single cambium. In the young stems, parenchymatous cells located outside to protophloem of distal side dedifferentiate and develop small segments of cambium. Concomitant to bidirectional differentiation of the secondary xylem and phloem, these newly developed cambial segments also extend in tangential directions. Differential activity of newly developed crescent-shaped cambial segments deposits more secondary xylem at median position as compared to their terminal ends of the stem on distal side; consequently, it pushes the cambial segment outside, thus resulting in crescent-shaped arcs of the cambia only on two opposite sides. After the production of 1–2 mm of secondary xylem, they cease to divide and new segments of cambial arc develop on the same side in a similar fashion. Such repeated behaviour of successive cambia development consequently leads to the formation of tangentially flat stems. The secondary xylem is diffusely porous with indistinct growth rings and is composed of vessels (wide and narrow), fibres, axial ray parenchyma cells, while phloem consisted of sieve elements, companion cells, axial and ray parenchyma. Rays in both xylem and phloem are uni- to multiseriate and heterocellular. The structure of secondary xylem and development of successive cambia is correlated with climbing habit.  相似文献

The plant cytoskeleton has been implicated in a variety of morphogenetic events in higher plants. Most of this work, however, has concentrated on epidermal cells or primary tissues. We have investigated the cortical microtubular (CMT) and microfilament (MF) components of the cytoskeleton in a secondary tissue  –  active vascular cambium of Aesculus hippocastanum L. (horse-chestnut)  –  and followed the changes in these components during the early stages of differentiation of fusiform cambial derivatives to axial elements of the secondary vascular system. A correlative approach was used employing indirect immunofluorescence microscopy of α-tubulin on 6 μm sections, and transmission electron microscopy of 60 nm sections. The study has demonstrated a rearrangement of the CMT cytoskeleton, from random to helical, as fusiform vascular cambial cells begin to differentiate as secondary phloem vascular tissue. A similar CMT rearrangement is seen as fusiform cambial cells begin to differentiate as secondary xylem fibres. This rearrangement is interpreted as evidence of determination of cambial derivatives towards vascular development. Axially-oriented MF bundles are present in fusiform cambial cells and their axial orientation is retained in the vascular derivatives at early stages of their development even though the CMTs have become rearranged.

Seasonal development of phloem in scots pine stems   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
The formation of phloem was studied for two years in stems of 50 to 60 year old trees of Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing in nature. The development of phloem of the current year begins 10 to 20 days before the xylem formation and is completed with the termination of shoot growth in the end of June. Observations over the seasonal activity of cambium producing sieve cells of phloem and duration of their differentiation as compared to the xylem derivatives of cambium have shown that the maxima of formation of phloem and xylem cells could coincide or not coincide by season, while the activities of their differentiation were always in antiphase. The sieve cells of early phloem were separated from those of late phloem by a layer of tannin-containing cells, which are formed simultaneously with the formation of late xylem cells by the cambium. Seasonal dynamics of accumulation of starch grain in structural elements of the phloem is related to the xylem development. The content of metabolites in differentiating and mature phloem elements, in the cambium zone, and in the xylem cells growing in the radial direction depended on cell specificity, stage of their development, and type of forming wood, early or late, which differ in the cell wall parameters and, hence, requirement of assimilates. Significant differences were described between the content of low molecular weigh carbohydrates, amino acids, organic acids, and phenol compounds using two methods of calculation: per dry weight and per cell.  相似文献

Mature stems of Sesuvium sesuvioides (Fenzl) Verdc. were found to be composed of successive rings of xylem alternating with phloem. Repeated periclinal divisions in the parenchyma outside the primary phloem gave rise to conjunctive tissue and the lateral meristem that differentiate into the vascular cambium on its inner side. After the formation of the vascular cambium, the lateral meristem external to it became indistinct as long as the cambium was functional. As the cambium ceased to divide, the lateral meristem again became apparent prior to the initiation of the next cambial ring. The cambium was exclusively composed of fusiform cambial cells with no rays. In the young saplings, the number of cambial cylinders in the axis varied from the apex to the base, indicating formation of several rings within the year. In each successive ring of the lateral meristem, small segments differentiated into the vascular cambium and gave rise to vessels, axial parenchyma, fibres and fibriform vessels towards the inside, and secondary phloem on the outer side. In the old stems, non‐functional phloem of the innermost rings was replaced by a new set of sieve tube elements formed by periclinal divisions in the cambial segments associated with the non‐functional phloem. In some places the cambial segments completely differentiate into derivatives leaving no cambial cells between the xylem and phloem. © 2008 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2008, 158 , 548–555.  相似文献
