Summary Germinating spores of the sensitive fern,Onoclea sensibilis L., undergo premitotic nuclear migration before a highly asymmetric cell division partitions each spore into a large protonemal cell and a small rhizoid initial. Nuclear movement and subsequent rhizoid formation were inhibited by the microtubule (MT) inhibitors, colchicine, isopropyl-N-3-chlorophenyl carbamate (CIPC) and griseofulvin. Colchicine prevented polar nuclear movement and cell division so that spores developed into enlarged, uninucleate single cells. CIPC and griseofulvin prevented nuclear migration, but not cell division, so that spores divided into daughter cells of approximately equal size. In colchicine-treated spores, MT were not observed at any time during germination. CIPC prevented MT formation at a time coincident with nuclear movement in the control and caused a disorientation of the spindle MT. Both colchicine and CIPC appeared to act at a time prior to the onset of normal nuclear movement. The effects of colchicine were reversible but those of CIPC were not. Cytochalasin b had no effect upon nuclear movement or rhizoid differentiation. These results suggests that MT mediate nuclear movement and that a highly asymmetric cell division is essential for rhizoid differentiation. 相似文献

Summary Chloroplast activities of dark-imbibed (non-germinating) and photoinduced (germinating) spores of the sensitive fern,Onoclea sensibilis were compared to gain insight into the germination process. There were no changes in the number of chloroplasts or in the chlorophyll contents of the spore during dark-imbibition and during the early phase of germination. Levels of increase in the Chloroplast DNA content of dark-imbibed and photoinduced spores were nearly the same and were associated with autoradiographic incorporation of [3H]thymidine into the cytoplasm. However, incorporation of the label into the nucleus occurred only during photoinduction of spores. Analysis of Chloroplast and nuclear DNA contents by dot-blot hybridization with labeled gene-specific probes has confirmed that chloroplast DNA content of the spore increases during dark-imbibition and photoinduction, while increase in nuclear DNA occurs only in photoinduced spores. Chloroplasts isolated from dark-imbibed and photoinduced spores incorporated [3H]TTP into an acid-insoluble fraction identified as DNA. The results show that physiological activities of chloroplasts of dark-imbibed and photoinduced spores ofO. sensibilis are similar and support an exclusive role for nuclear DNA synthesis in spore germination. 相似文献

Gametophytes of Onoclea sensiblis L. were grown under various light and media-ion conditions to gain a better understanding of the source/sink relationships between photosynthetic and ion-absorbing cells. There was a clear interdependency between green cell and rhizoid functions, such that the growth and development of the rhizoids was completely dependent on the internal delivery of photosynthates from green cells, and conversion of the one-dimensional filament into the two-dimensional prothallus required monovalent cations that could only be provided by rhizoid uptake. The need for monovalent cations was related to osmotic demands of dividing and expanding cells; prothallial development was blocked by monovalent cation deficiency, and the system resorted to Na+ uptake to support cell expansion when K+ was absent. Surgical excisions of filament cells further demonstrated the high degree of coordinated growth between the light-absorbing and ion-absorbing regions. It was also learned that excised sub-apical cells of the protonemata, like the intensively studied apical cell, were capable of remodelling remnants of the filament into a normal prothallus. 相似文献

A kinetic model is developed for cell differentiation in the fern gametophyte to test hypotheses on the role of spatially patterned plasmodesmata networks in development. Of particular interest is the establishment and maintenance of apical cell type in a single cell, with concurrent suppression of this character in all other cells (apical dominance). Steps towards understanding apical cell localization in geometrically simple gametophytes may shed light on the establishment and maintenance of apical meristems in higher plants. The model, based on the plasmodesmata maps of Tilney and colleagues and involving kinetics for a requisite minimum of two morphogens. successfully produces the apical/non-apical cell differentiation patterns of normal development, and redifferentiation due to cell isolation, in six stages from 0-30 d of development. Our results indicate that increasing apical cell plasmodesmata number, as development progresses, is not required for effective transport across apical cell walls in maintaining apical dominance. 相似文献

During spore germination in the fern, Onoclea sensibilis L., the nucleus moves from a central position to one end, and an asymmetrical cell division partitions the spore into two cells of greatly unequal size. The smaller cell differentiates directly into a rhizoid, whereas the larger cell and its derivatives give rise to the prothallus. In the presence of 5 mM caffeine, the nuclei of most of the spores undergo mitotic replication, whereas cell wall formation is blocked. Multinucleate single cells are produced, which are capable of growth, but no rhizoid differentiation occurs. In some cases a partial cell wall is produced, but the nucleus moves through the discontinuity back to the center of the spore, and the enucleate, incompletely partitioned small “cell” fails to differentiate into a rhizoid. In less than 1% of the spores a broad protuberance, whose wall is yellow-brown, is formed in a multinucleate single cell. The color, staining reaction to ruthenium red, and ultrastructural appearance of the protuberance resemble that of the rhizoid wall. It appears that infrequently in the caffeine-treated spores, a feature which is characteristic of rhizoids is expressed, in the absence of asymmetric cell division, in a cell which otherwise is unable to produce a rhizoid. The results are interpreted to mean that the spore has a highly localized, persistent differentiated region. For rhizoid differentiation to occur, a nucleus must be confined in that region – a confinement which normally is accomplished by the geometrically asymmetric first cell division of germination. 相似文献
