试管棉纤维与天然棉纤维超微结构的差异(简报)

棉纤维由棉胚珠表皮细胞分化生长而成,是研究细胞分化、细胞伸长等机理的良好材料。为了更好地研究它的分化和发育,人们建立了多种实验系统:离体胚珠培养系统、胚珠来源的单细胞悬浮培养系统、胚珠愈伤组织细胞来源的细胞悬浮培养系统,并对这些实验系统的特点对纤维细胞分化和生长,如培养基的配方、激素配比、pH值、抑制剂或促进剂的影响等进行了较为系统的研究。发现棉纤维的发育

ULTRASTRUCTURE DIFFERENCES OF IN VITRO COTTON FIBER AND NATIVE COTTON FIBER

Native cotton fiber and in vitro cotton fiber that was induced from cotton ovule callus by suspension culture were observed using transmission electron microscope and scanning electron microscope. The ovule surface on the first day prean-thesis was quite smooth. On the anthesis, it had a lot of protuberances. Two kinds of callus, smooth and rough were found. The microfibrils of callus was vertical to the cell long axis and they changed their orientations with the development of the in vitro cotton fiber : from the vertical to shallow spiral and then to parallel to the cell long axis. So was the native cotton fiber. It suggests that in vitro cotton fiber and native cotton fiber have similar development process. Compared with the ovule surface cell, most callus cells had smaller nuclear. During the development of the fiber, the plasm of native cotton fiber was denser than that of in vitro fiber, and it has more cellular organ than in vitro fiber. The cell wall of native cotton fiber was thicker and denser than that of the in vitro cotton fiber too. It suggests that the physiological activity of in vitro cotton fiber was less active than native cotton fiber.
