    Cytokinesis in microspore mother cells of Impatiens sultani (1988)

    Notes: Summary Cytokinesis in Impatiens sultani microspore mother cells is simultaneous. It starts with the formation of small ingrowths of the surrounding callosic wall. Next, an incomplete cell plate is formed by fusion of small dictyosome vesicles. The cell plate consists of a network of anastomosing tubules and sacs. Aggregates of fusing vesicles are associated with bundles of microtubules, which are oriented perpendicular to the plane of the future cell walls. In the sacculate parts of the cell plate, some callose is deposited, while the associated microtubules disappear. The cell walls ultimately develop by enlargement of the previously formed wall ingrowths, which successively incorporate the elements of the cell plate. The enlargement and thickening of the walls is not accompanied by a further fusion and incorporation of dictyosome vesicles.

    Cytoplasmic differentiation during tetrad formation and early microspore development inImpatiens sultani (1989)

    Notes: Summary From early prophase stage until probaculae formation within the tetrad stage considerable cytoplasmic changes occur. The changes merely concern the ribosome population, the plasma matrix and, the endomembrane system formed by endoplasmic reticulum, dictyosomes and dictyosome-vesicles. The ultrastructure and morphology of mitochondria and plastids remain fairly unchanged, apart from the mobilization of starch during primexine formation. During meiotic prophase there is an increase in ribosome number, accompanied by the presence of nucleoloids in the cytoplasm. Simultaneously the electron density of the cytoplasm strongly increases, indicating a fair increase in protein content. Nucleoloids are also observed in the cytoplasm after primexine formation, accompanied by localized accumulation of ribosomes. Up to the individualization of the microspores the dictyosomes are in an inactive state. After that, they become very active, especially during primexine formation when numerous large dictyosome-vesicles are present. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER), initially in a plate-like configuration, disappears from the cytoplasm during primexine formation. Abundant, smooth and tubular ER is present when probaculum formation starts.

    Growth inhibition and recovery in freeze-substitutedLilium longiflorum pollen tubes: structural effects of caffeine (1997)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 196 (1997), S. 21-33

    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Keywords: Caffeine ; Freeze substitution ; Lilium ; Pollen tubes ; Rapid freeze fixation

    Notes: Summary In an attempt to correlate structural effects with the known dissipation of the tip-focused Ca2+ gradient caused by caffeine, we have examined the ultrastructure of caffeine-treated lily pollen tubes prepared by rapid freeze fixation and freeze substitution. We show that treatment with caffeine results in a rapid rearrangement of secretory vesicles at the pollen tube tip; the normal cone-shaped array of vesicles is rapidly dispersed. In addition, microfilament bundles appear in the tip region, where they had previously been excluded. Delocalized vesicle fusion continues in the presence of caffeine but tube extension ceases. Removal of caffeine from the growth medium initially causes tip swelling, delocalized vesicle fusion and presence of microfilaments well into the tip before normal structure and growth resume, concurrent with the previously reported return to a normal Ca2+ gradient.

    Ultrastructure of the cytoskeleton in freeze-substituted pollen tubes ofNicotiana alata (1987)

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the cytoskeleton inNicotiana alata pollen tubes grownin vitro has been examined after rapid freeze fixation and freeze substitution (RF-FS). Whereas cytoplasmic microtubules (MTs) and especially microfilaments (MFs) are infrequently observed after conventional chemical fixation, they occur in all samples prepared by RF-FS. Cortical MTs are oriented parallel to the long axis of the pollen tube and usually appear evenly spaced around the circumference of the cell. They are always observed with other components in a structural complex that includes the following: 1. a system of MFs, in which individual elements are aligned along the sides of the MTs and crossbridged to them; 2. a system of cooriented tubular endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lying beneath the MTs, and 3. the plasma membrane (PM) to which the MTs appear to be extensively linked. The cortical cytoskeleton is thus structurally complex, and contains elements such as MFs and ER that must be considered together with the MTs in any attempt to elucidate cytoskeletal function. MTs are also observed within the vegetative cytoplasm either singly or in small groups. Observations reveal that some of these may be closely associated with the envelope of the vegetative nucleus. MTs of the generative cell, in contrast to those of the vegetative cytoplasm, occur tightly clustered in bundles and show extensive cross-bridging. These bundles, especially in the distal tail of the generative cell, are markedly undulated. MFs are observed commonly in the cytoplasm of the vegetative cell. They occur in bundles oriented predominantly parallel to the pollen tube axis. Although proof is not provided, we suggest that they are composed of actin and are responsible for generating the vigorous cytoplasmic streaming characteristic of living pollen tubes.
