The dynamics of nuclear DNA synthesis were analysed in isolated microspores and pollen of Brassica napus that were induced to form embryos. DNA synthesis was visualized by the immunocytochemical labelling of incorporated Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU), applied continuously or as a pulse during the first 24 h of culture under embryogenic (32 °C) and non-embryogenic (18 °C) conditions. Total DNA content of the nuclei was determined by microspectrophotometry. At the moment of isolation, microspore nuclei and nuclei of generative cells were at the G1, S or G2 phase. Vegetative nuclei of pollen were always in G1 at the onset of culture. When microspores were cultured at 18 °C, they followed the normal gametophytic development; when cultured at 32 °C, they divided symmetrically and became embryogenic or continued gametophytic development. Because the two nuclei of the symmetrically divided microspores were either both labelled with BrdU or not labelled at all, we concluded that microspores are inducible to form embryos from the G1 until the G2 phase. When bicellular pollen were cultured at 18 °C, they exhibited labelling exclusively in generative nuclei. This is comparable to the gametophytic development that occurs in vivo. Early bicellular pollen cultured at 32 °C, however, also exhibited replication in vegetative nuclei. The majority of vegetative nuclei re-entered the cell cycle after 12 h of culture. Replication in the vegetative cells preceded division of the vegetative cell, a prerequisite for pollen-derived embryogenesis. 相似文献

Summary An in vitro system for tuber formation was used to study early morphological and cytological changes occurring during tuber formation in potatoes, with special emphasis on the orientation of the microtubular cytoskeleton, visualized immunocytochemically. Axillary buds from potato plants were cultured in the presence or absence of gibberellin (GA), resulting in either tuber formation (without GA) or shoot formation (GA added). Tuber formation in the absence of GA was highly synchronous in individual buds, enabling the dissection of various aspects of tuberization. Under both conditions, starch started to accumulate. In the absence of GA, starch levels rapidly increased, concomitantly with tuber formation, whereas it slightly decreased in the presence of GA. Up to 4 days, the cortical MTs in the cells were oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the developing buds. Under tuber-inducing conditions this orientation changed into a longitudinal one at day 5. This change preceded a change in the direction of cell expansion. In the presence of GA no such reorientation was observed, cells continued to grow longitudinally, and a stoloniferous shoot was formed. The cytoskeletal changes preceded the visible swelling of the buds, observed after day 5, demonstrating that the reorientation of the microtubular cytoskeleton is one of the earliest steps observed so far in tuber formation in potatoes.Abbreviations GA

The effects of plant hormones and sucrose (Suc) on potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuberization were studied using in vitro cultured single-node cuttings. Tuber-inducing (high Suc) and -noninducing (low Suc or high Suc plus gibberellin [GA]) media were tested. Tuberization frequencies, tuber widths, and stolon lengths were measured during successive stages of development. Endogenous GAs and abscisic acid (ABA) were identified and quantified by high-performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Exogenous GA4/7 promoted stolon elongation and inhibited tuber formation, whereas exogenous ABA stimulated tuberization and reduced stolon length. Indoleacetic acid-containing media severely inhibited elongation of stolons and smaller sessile tubers were formed. Exogenous cytokinins did not affect stolon elongation and tuber formation. Endogenous GA1 level was high during stolon elongation and decreased when stolon tips started to swell under inducing conditions, whereas it remained high under noninducing conditions. GA1 levels were negatively correlated with Suc concentration in the medium. We conclude that GA1 is likely to be the active GA during tuber formation. Endogenous ABA levels decreased during stolon and tuber development, and ABA levels were similar under inducing and noninducing conditions. Our results indicate that GA is a dominant regulator in tuber formation: ABA stimulates tuberization by counteracting GA, and Suc regulates tuber formation by influencing GA levels. 相似文献

Summary Endosperm cellularization in Ranunculus sceleratus was studied in terms of the initiation of cell-wall formation in the coenocytic endosperm. The first endosperm cell walls were in an anticlinal position relative to the cell wall of the embryo sac and originated from the cell plates and not from wall ingrowths from the embryo-sac wall itself. Alveolar endosperm was formed 3 days after pollination. Microtubules were associated with the freely growing wall ends of the anticlinal walls and were observed in various orientations that generally ranged from angles of 45 ° to 90 ° to the plane of the wall. They were absent in the regions where vesicles had already fused. These microtubules may function in maintaining the growth and the direction of growth of the anticlinal wall until cellularization is completed. At the site where three neighbouring alveoli share their freely growing wall ends, remarkable configurations of microtubules were observed: in each alveolus, microtubules ran predominantly parallel to the bisector of the angle formed by the common walls. These microtubules may form a physically stable framework and maintain the direction of growth of the wall edges. It is concluded that the growing edge of the anticlinal endosperm wall and its associated microtubules are a special continuum of the original phragmoplast that gave rise to the anticlinal wall. 相似文献

The cell plate is the new cell wall, with bordering plasma membrane, that is formed between two daughter cells in plants, and it is formed by fusion of vesicles (approximately 60 nm). To start to determine physical properties of cell plate forming vesicles for their transport through the phragmoplast, and fusion with each other, we microinjected fluorescent synthetic lipid vesicles that were made of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-[phospho-rac-(1-glycerol)] (DOPG) into Tradescantia virginiana stamen hair cells. During interphase, the 60-nm wide DOPG vesicles moved inside the cytoplasm comparably to organelles. During cytokinesis, they were transported through the phragmoplast and accumulated in the cell plate region together with the endogenous vesicles, even inside the central cell plate region. Because at this stage microtubules are virtually absent from that region, while actin filaments are present, actin filaments may have a role in the transport of vesicles toward the cell plate. Unlike the endogenous vesicles, the synthetic DOPG vesicles did not fuse with the developing cell plate. Instead, they redistributed into the cytoplasm of the daughter cells upon completion of cytokinesis. Because the redistribution of the vesicles occurs when actin filaments disappear from the phragmoplast, actin filaments may be involved in keeping the vesicles inside the developing cell plate region. 相似文献

Induction of embryogenic calli from immature zygotic embryos of maize requires the presence of 2,4-D or similar auxin-like growth regulators in the culture medium. Pulse-chase experiments with 2,4-D, using various concentrations of 2,4-D in the induction medium were tested in relation to induction of callus in the embryogenic inbred line A188 and the non-embryogenic
inbred A632. Interactions of 2,4-D, 3,5-D and the auxin transport inhibitor TIBA were also studied. Pulse-chase experiments showed that exposure to 2,4-D influenced the culture response from 0.5 h onwards. After a pulse of 0.5 h, shoot and root elongation of the embryo was stimulated.
A pulse of 16 h or longer induced outgrowths and callus formation at the basal side of the scutellum. Pulses of 7 days and
longer resulted in the induction of friable embryogenic Type II callus in A188. Embryos were cultured at 2,4-D concentrations ranging from 0.002 to 2000 mg l−1 and optimal concentration for the induction of embryogenic callus in A188 was 2 mg l−1. At lower concentrations there was a transition between callus formation and germination; at increasing concentrations, callus
induction was reduced and finally growth responses became blocked. When TIBA was added to medium without 2,4-D, root elongation decreased in a dose-dependent way suggesting the need of polar transport of endogenous auxins for root elongation.
When added to medium with 2,4-D, TIBA caused suppression of callus formation, again pointing to the necessity of polar transport of 2,4-D. In combination with 2,4-D, cultures with 3,5-D resembled cultures at lower 2,4-D concentrations, pointing to a competitive interaction between 3,5-D and 2,4-D.

The titan (ttn) mutants of Arabidopsis exhibit striking alterations in chromosome dynamics and cell division during seed development. Endosperm defects include aberrant mitoses and giant polyploid nuclei. Mutant embryos differ in cell size, morphology and viability, depending on the locus involved. Here we demonstrate that three TTN genes encode chromosome scaffold proteins of the condensin (SMC2) and cohesin (SMC1 and SMC3) classes. These proteins have been studied extensively in yeast and animal systems, where they modulate chromosome condensation, chromatid separation, and dosage compensation. Arabidopsis contains single copies of SMC1 and SMC3 cohesins. We used forward genetics to identify duplicate T-DNA insertions in each gene. These mutants (ttn7 and ttn8) have similar titan phenotypes: giant endosperm nuclei and arrested embryos with a few small cells. A single SMC2 knockout (ttn3) was identified and confirmed by molecular complementation. The weak embryo phenotype observed in this mutant may result from expression of a related gene (AtSMC2) with overlapping functions. Further analysis of titan mutants and the SMC gene family in Arabidopsis should provide clues to chromosome mechanics in plants and insights into the regulation of nuclear activity during endosperm development. 相似文献

We studied cell cycle events in embryos of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv Moneymaker) seeds during imbibition in water and during osmoconditioning ("priming") using both quantitative and cytological analysis of DNA synthesis and beta-tubulin accumulation. Most embryonic nuclei of dry, untreated control seeds were arrested in the G(1) phase of the cell cycle. This indicated the absence of DNA synthesis (the S-phase), as confirmed by the absence of bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. In addition, beta-tubulin was not detected on western blots and microtubules were not present. During imbibition in water, DNA synthesis was activated in the radicle tip and then spread toward the cotyledons, resulting in an increase in the number of nuclei in G(2). Concomitantly, beta-tubulin accumulated and was assembled into microtubular cytoskeleton networks. Both of these cell cycle events preceded cell expansion and division and subsequent growth of the radicle through the seed coat. The activation of DNA synthesis and the formation of microtubular cytoskeleton networks were also observed throughout the embryo when seeds were osmoconditioned. However, this pre-activation of the cell cycle appeared to become arrested in the G(2) phase since no mitosis was observed. The pre-activation of cell cycle events in osmoconditioned seeds appeared to be correlated with enhanced germination performance during re-imbibition in water. 相似文献
