Freeze etching studies in a symbiotic and a freeliving strain of Chroococcidiopsis revealed a specific layer in the outer cell wall not described so far from Cyanophyta. The layer showed a complex organisation: The main unit are ribbons, 2–3 nm thick, striated at right angle to the longitudinal axis. They are interwoven to a patchwork-like leaflet. The ribbons are virtually composed of globular particles associated in parallel rows. The cytoplasmic membrane and the cell walls of the symbiotic and the free-living strain were compared.Abbreviations cm

Fluorescence and reflectance characteristics of manganese deficient soybean leaves: Effects of leaf age and choice of leaflet 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Leaf reflectance and fluorescence characteristics of soybean (Glycine max cv Bragg) are influenced strongly by Mn availability. This report evaluates the effects of leaflet choice, leaf age, and leaf nodal position on several spectral characteristics. Leaves were obtained from soybeans grown hydroponically under controlled environmental conditions with wide differences in Mn supply. The ratio of constant yield fluorescence (Fo) to variable yield fluorescence (Fv), the ratios of reflectance at 750 nm to 550 nm and that at 650 nm to 550 nm, the position of the "red edge" near 700 nm, and an index of leaf "yellowness" were measured periodically. Increasing leaf age caused increases in the "red edge" and in both reflectance ratios. Leaf "yellowness" and the fluorescence ratio Fo/Fv decreased with leaf age and increased with leaf nodal position, primarily in Mn deficient leaves. Effects arising from leaf choice were smaller than those caused by Mn deficiency. 相似文献

Stomata formed at high relative air humidity (RH) close less as leaf dries; an effect that varies depending on the genotype. We here quantified the contribution of each stomatal response characteristic to the higher water loss of high RH-grown plants, and assessed the relationship between response characteristics and intraspecific variation in stomatal size. Stomatal size (length multiplied by width), density and responsiveness to desiccation, as well as pore dimensions were analyzed in ten rose cultivars grown at moderate (60%) or high (85%) RH. Leaf morphological components and transpiration at growth conditions were also assessed. High growth RH resulted in thinner (11%) leaves with larger area. A strong positive genetic correlation of daytime and nighttime transpiration at either RH was observed. Stomatal size determined pore area (r = 0.7) and varied by a factor of two, as a result of proportional changes in length and width. Size and density of stomata were not related. Following desiccation, high RH resulted in a significantly lower (6–19%) decline of transpiration in three cultivars, whereas the relative water content (RWC) of high RH-expanded leaflets was lower (29–297%) in seven cultivars. The lower RWC of these leaflets was caused by (a) higher (33–72%) stable transpiration and/or (b) lower (12–143%) RWC at which this stable transpiration occurred, depending on the cultivar. Stomatal size was significantly correlated with both characteristics (r = 0.5 and -0.7, respectively). These results indicate that stomatal size explains much of the intraspecific variation in the regulation of transpiration upon water deprivation on rose. 相似文献

Abstract The suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) contain the endogenous mammalian circadian pacemaker, which generates the circadian rhythm in locomotor activity. In Syrian hamsters with free‐running rhythms, the onset of running‐wheel activity is very precise and predictable while the end (offset) is more variable. From the thalamic intergeniculate leaflet (IGL) and the ventral lateral geniculate nucleus (vLGN) a projection to the SCN originates. Animals with a lesion aimed at the IGL/vLGN and sham‐and unoperated controls were kept in continuous darkness. With linear regression, lines were fitted through 10 successive onsets and offsets of activity and the mean deviation of the onsets and offsets from the fitted lines was determined. Animals with a complete or partial lesion of the IGL/vLGN had a smaller mean deviation of the circadian activity offset from the fitted regression line (0.313 h) compared with the grouped control animals (0.678 h). To test the difference statistically, we compared the sum of the square residuals of the circadian offsets between the groups. This difference was highly significant (F(69,64)=4.16, p<0.0001), which indicates that animals with a lesion of the IGL/ vLGN have a less variable circadian offset of running‐wheel activity. No differences were observed in the variability in the circadian onset of locomotor activity between experimental and control animals. It is concluded that the IGL/vLGN influence the variability of the offset of the circadian running‐wheel activity. 相似文献

Recent developmental studies suggest that the compound leaf is a more or less incompletely developed shoot. Instead of treating compound leaves and shoots as non-homologous, this interpretation draws a continuum between them. The present work considers the plant as a hierarchical series of units on which similar developmental processes are at work, and where each level (shoot, compound leaf, leaflet) is 'repeated' by the next higher level. Measurements related to the expression of developmental processes operating on leaves at the shoot level and on leaflets at the compound leaf level were used to determine if similar processes are at work at these different levels during early stages of organogenesis. Plants with compound leaves showing acropetal leaflet inception, representing a total of 16 species from ten eudicot families, were studied. Based on several types of quantitative analyses, there appears to be a continuum between so-called shoots, compound leaves and leaflets in the species studied. This perspective, qualified as dynamic morphology, both parallels and complements the classical interpretation. © 2003 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2003, 143, 219−230. 相似文献

The suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus (SCN) plays an essential role in the generation and maintenance of circadian rhythms in mammals. The SCN activity is also dependent upon the photoperiod. The duration of the SCN sensitive phase to light, in term of Fos induction, is variable and tied to the length of the night. The question is how and by which pathways can photoperiod influence SCN? It is possible following the theoretical model of evening and morning component of the clock that the SCN build itself the photoperiodic signal. That the SCN integrate the photoperiodic information through indirect neural or neuroendocrine pathways is also to consider. Data in favor of these different interpretations are presented. 相似文献

Tomato gray mold (Botrytis cinerea Pers.) is a common disease worldwide, and often causes serious production loss by infecting leaves, stems, flowers and fruits.
Presently, no resistant cultivars are available. To find new breeding materials for gray mold resistance, assessment for resistance
of the leaflet and stem in six tomato cultivars, 44 wild tomato accessions and a Solanum lycopersicoides accession was performed. Although no correlation was observed (r=−0.127ns) between resistance of the leaflet and the stem, L. peruvianum LA2745, L. hirsutum LA2314 and L. pimpinellifolium LA1246 showed high resistance both in the leaflet and in the stem. Particularly, in the leaves of LA2745, no lesions were
observed even more than two weeks after the inoculation with conidia, and F1s between a cultivated tomato and LA2745 also
showed high resistance as observed in LA2745. From these results, LA2745 is thought to be a promising material for breeding
gray-mold resistant cultivars. 相似文献

Cholesterol is an essential component of mammalian cell membranes whose subcellular concentration and function are tightly regulated by de novo biosynthesis, transport, and storage. Although recent reports have suggested diverse functions of cellular cholesterol in different subcellular membranes, systematic investigation of its site-specific roles has been hampered by the lack of a methodology for spatiotemporal manipulation of cellular cholesterol levels. Here, we report the development of a new cholesterol depletion system that allows for spatiotemporal manipulation of intracellular cholesterol levels. This system utilizes a genetically encoded cholesterol oxidase whose intrinsic membrane binding activity is engineered in such a way that its membrane targeting can be controlled in a spatiotemporally specific manner via chemically induced dimerization. In combination with in situ quantitative imaging of cholesterol and signaling activity measurements, this system allows for unambiguous determination of site-specific functions of cholesterol in different membranes, including the plasma membrane and the lysosomal membrane. 相似文献

Properties of a mutant at theLLD (LEAF-LET DEVELOPMENT) locus in peaPisum sativum L. are reported in this paper. Plants homozygous for the Mendelian recessive mutationlld bear leaves in which a few to many leaflets are incompletely developed. Opposite pinnae of rachis nodes often formed fused
incompletely developed leaflets. Thelld mutation was observed to abort pinna development at almost all morphogenetic stages. Thelld mutation demonstrated high penetrance and low expressivity. The phenotypes oflld plants intl, tac, tl tac, tl af andtl af tac backgrounds suggested that LLD function is involved in the separation of lateral adjacent blastozones differentiated on primary,
secondary and tertiary rachides and lamina development in leaflets. The aborted development of tendrils and leaflets inlld mutants was related to deficiency in vascular tissue growth. The morphological and anatomical features of the leaflets formed
on atl lld double mutant permitted a model of basipetal leaflet development. The key steps of leaflet morphogenesis include origin of
the lamina by splitting of a radially symmetrical growing pinna having abaxial outer surface, opposite to the vascular cylinder,
through an invaginational groove, differentiation of adaxial surface along the outer boundary of split tissue in the groove
and expansion of the lamina ridges so formed into lamina spans. 相似文献

In order to define central neurons projecting to the subcommissural organ (SCO) and to related areas in the postero-medial diencephalon, Phaseolus vulgaris-leucoagglutinin (PHA-L) was injected into the lateral geniculate nucleus of the rat. PHA-L-labelled neurons send axonal processes medially through the posterior thalamic nuclei and the posterior commissure to the other hemisphere. Branches of fibres originating from this projection form a plexus of nerve terminals in the underlying precommissural nucleus and in the nucleus of the posterior commissure. A small number of PHA-L-immunoreactive nerve fibres penetrate from the precommissural nucleus into the lateral part of the SCO. A few labelled fibres penetrate directly from the posterior commissure into the medial part of the caudal SCO. Most of the PHA-L-immunoreactive fibres occur in the hypendymal layer, although a few terminate near the ependymal cells of the organ. Many labelled fibres are found in the ventricular ependyma adjacent to the SCO, some fibres lying close to the ventricular lumen. These results were obtained only if the tracer was delivered into the intergeniculate leaflet of the lateral geniculate nucleus (IGL). The IGL innervates both the suprachiasmatic nucleus and the pineal organ; the connections between the IGL and the midline structures, including the SCO, suggest that these areas are influenced by the circadian system. 相似文献
