    Ultrastructural features of Aloe ciliaris pollen (1988)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 1 (1988), S. 88-96

    ISSN: 1432-2145

    Notes: Summary Both the internal anatomy and the external morphology of the mature pollen grain of Aloe ciliaris have been studied, together with the cytological changes occurring during pollen activation. In mature pollen, the generative cell (GC) and the vegetative nucleus (VN) are closely associated with each other, and both can be found in the central part of the grain. In the generative cytoplasm, some organelles and microtubular bundles are present. In the vegetative cell, dictyosomes, stacks of rough endoplasmic reticulum, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, ribosomes, and masses of fibrillar material have been described. During pollen activation, important changes occur in both the generative and vegetative cells (VC). In the GC, the microtubular bundles become clearly visible, and the GC and VC gradually move towards the germ pore. The RER cisterns become free from the stacks, and organelles, such as dictyosomes, become very active. The fibrillar masses gradually decrease in number, and the individual fibrils become more evident and clearer in resolution.

    Description / Table of Contents: Riassunto Nel presente lavoro vengono riportati alcuni brevi cenni sulla biologia del polline. Viene descritto il processo di formazione del granulo pollinico e la sua dispersione con particolare riguardo alle piante anemofile. Vengono brevemente riportati anche alcuni dati sulla composizione chimica del polline.
    Notes: Summary In the present paper some data on the pollen biology are reported. The current knowledge on the pollen development, pollen dispersion in the wind pollination are shortly described. The chemical composition of some pollen grains are also reported.

    Ultrastructure of the cytoskeleton in freeze-substituted pollen tubes ofNicotiana alata (1987)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 140 (1987), S. 141-150

    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Keywords: Cytoskeleton ; Freeze substitution ; Nicotiana ; Pollen tubes ; Rapid freeze fixation

    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.

    Origin of sperm cell association in the “male germ unit” ofBrassica pollen (1989)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 149 (1989), S. 1-4 
    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Keywords: Brassica napus ; Cell division ; Male germ unit ; Pollen ; Sperm cells
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary The association of the two sperm cells inBrassica napus pollen following the generative cell division was investigated. The generative cell during division is located in the center of the pollen grain, within the vegetative cell. The space present between the two cells is slightly irregular as seen following standard glutaraldehyde fixation. After completion of mitosis vesicles appear in the equatorial plane, coalescing centripetally to form a cell plate which fuses with the membrane of the generative cell, dividing it in two sperm cells. They are isolated from the vegetative cell by the space between the two cell membranes and are separated from each other by a similar space resulting from the cell plate formed during cytokinesis.

    Ultrastructure of the vegetative cell ofBrassica napus pollen with particular reference to microbodies (1989)
    Springer

    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6102

    Notes: Summary The ultrastructure of the vegetative cell ofBrassica napus tricellular pollen grains, just before anthesis with standard chemical fixation, is reported. The vegetative cell may be regarded as a highly differentiated and metabolically active fat-storage cell. It contains many mitochondria with a well developed internal membrane system, starchless plastids, microbodies, lipid bodies, dictyosomes and numerous vesicles thought to originate from the dictysomes. Rough endoplasmic reticulum organized in stacks of cisternae is also spatially associated with certain organelles, mainly lipid bodies, microbodies and plastids. There are also randomly distributed polyribosome areas. The microbodies are mainly polymorphic in shape and are often observed in contact with lipid bodies. The above spatial relationship implies that the microbodies may have a glyoxysomal function. In the late period of vegetative cell maturation, the microbodies are probably involved in the process of glyconeogenesis in which the conversion of lipid reserves to sugar takes place.
