水培对羽裂蔓绿绒解剖结构的影响

采用石蜡切片法,对天南星科植物羽裂蔓绿绒(Philodendron pitfieri Engl.)水培和土培根的解剖特征进行观察,探讨蔓绿绒适应水生环境的形态学特点,并比较了水培根与土培根的形态解剖学差异.结果表明:水培后根冠不明显,淀粉体较少,多糖类物质较少而土培根根冠体积较大,淀粉体较多,多糖类物质多,土培根PAS反应强烈;水培根表皮厚度比土培根小,水培根根毛少或退化消失;水培根皮层薄壁组织发达,细胞大型,壁薄,细胞间隙中含有溶生性通气组织,土培根皮层未见通气组织.

Effect of Water Culture on on Anatomic Structure of Roots in Philodendron pitfieri Engl.

By using paraffin method, the root anatomical structure of Philodendron pitfieri Engl. under water culture were observed, and the morphological characteristics adapting to aquatic environment were discussed. The results showed that compared with soil culture, the root cap was not obvious with less amyloplast and polysaccharose substance under water culture. The root epidermis under water culture was thinner than that of soil culture, with little root hair or not, in which cortex parenchyma tissue developed with big cell, solution proliferative aerenchyma in intercellular space, and thin cell wall. However, the root cap under soil culture was big, with strong PAS reaction and no aerenchyma tissue.
