    Ultrastructure and histochemistry of Citrus limon (L.) stigma (1982)

    Notes: Abstract Citrus limon has a “wet” stigma which can be divided in two zones: a glandular superficial one formed by papillae, and a non-glandular one formed by parenchymatic cells. The stigmatic exudate is produced by the papillae after the latter have reached their ultimate size. The papillae of the mature pistil are of varying size and composition. Both the unicellular and multicellular ones are present. The cells at the base of the papillae are rich in cytoplasm, whereas the tip cells are vacuolated. Histochemical analysis has shown that the exudate of Citrus is composed of lipids, polysaccharides, and proteins. Our results indicate that the lipidic component is produced and secreted first, followed by production and secretion of the polysaccharidic component. The lipidic component of the exudate is produced in the basal papillae cells and accumulates as droplets in dilated parts of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER). Subsequently the lipid droplets are transported to the plasma membrane, and transferred by the latter into the cell walls. Then the exudate component is accumulated in the intercellular spaces and in the middle lamellar regions of the walls. Subsequently, the polysaccharidic component of the exudate is produced and secreted by the tip cells of the papillae.

    Ultrastructural investigations on Lycopersicum peruvianum pollen activation and pollen tube organization after self-and cross-pollination (1980)

    ISSN: 1432-2048
    Keywords: Lycopersicum ; Pollen activation ; Pollen tube ; Self-incompatibility
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Abstract No differences have been observed “in vivo” between Lycopersicum peruvianum compatible and incompatible pollen during activation and pollen tube emission and organization, that is until 4 h and 30 min after pollination. During pollen activation the main events are the setting free of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) cisterns which were “stacked” in the mature pollen, the increase in the number of polysomes, and a great activity of the dictyosomes. Immediately after germination of the vegetative nucleus and the generative cell move into the tube, the generative cell diviting to form the male gametes; the tube then becomes organized in four zones. This series of changes is similar to what has already been observed “in vitro” except that in vitro the generative cell remains undivided and the whole process from seeding to tube organization takes 3 h instead of 4 h and 30 min after pollination, as it does in vivo. Our findings are compatible with the main models of the tube inhibition mechanism proposed till now.

    Ultrastructural features of Aloe ciliaris pollen (1988)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 1 (1988), S. 88-96 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Pollen activation ; Generative cell ; Vegetative cell ; Cytoskeleton
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    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.

    The ultrastructure of polymorphic pollen grains of Canna indica L. (1989)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 2 (1989), S. 193-198 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Polymorphism ; Ultrastructure ; Pollen grains ; Canna indica L ; Tannin
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary Our investigations on Canna indica L. indicate that the pollen of this species is polymorphic: there are two types of pollen — a larger type and a comparatively smaller type. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the presence of small vacuoles containing tannic substances in the generative cell (GC) of the larger grains: the GC of the mature grain contained a higher quantity of tannins than the GC of the immature grain. Mitochondria, lipid bodies, rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and microtubular bundles were present in the cytoplasm of the GC. Numerous mitochondria, lipid bodies and plastids were also present in the vegetative cell (VC), with the mitochondria clustered around the vegetative nucleus. The plastids were observed to be associated with the RER cisterns. During the maturation process, the number of starch grains contained in the plastids decreased.

    Cytokinesis in microspore mother cells of Impatiens sultani (1988)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 1 (1988), S. 228-233 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Microspore mother cell ; Cytokinesis ; Impatiens sultani ; Cell plate
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    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.

    Pre-fertilization degeneration of both synergids in Brassica campestris ovules (1988)
    Springer

    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Megagametophyte ; Synergids ; Brassica campestris ; Ultrastructure
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary In Brassica campestris, both synergids of the ovule degenerate before the arrival of the pollen tube. Synergid degeneration does not depend on pollination. At the non-degenerated stage, the synergids are completely filled with a complexly organized cytoplasm containing numerous mitochondria with many cristae, a large number of dictyosomes with many associated vesicles, and a very extensive rough endoplasmic reticulum. The degenerative changes that occur in the cytoplasm of the synergids are characterized by a loss of visibility of the membranes of the endoplasmic reticulum and the simultaneous formation of dense deposits on the surrounding membranes of the mitochondria. Locally, the plasma membranes of the synergids disappear, and some ground plasma of the synergids penetrates into the space between the plasma membranes of the egg cell and the central cell.

    The structure and cytochemistry of the pistil of Hypericum calycinum: the style (1988)
    Springer

    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Hypericum calycinum ; Pistil ; Pollen pistil interaction ; Transmitting tissue ; Ultra structure
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary A typical style of Hypericum calycinum is solid with a core of transmitting tissue traversing the whole length of the style. This transmitting tissue consists of loosely arranged cells and large intercellular spaces filled with a secretion product. The secretion product is rich in lipids, but poor in proteins and polysaccharides. The intercellular spaces of the transmitting tissue originate partly by a separation of cells as a result of the decomposition of the middle lamella and partly by degeneration of some of the cells of the transmitting tissue. H. calycinum is self-compatible. Both self- and cross-pollinations result in profuse pollen germination on the stigma and pollen tube growth through the style. The data on Hypericum is discussed in relation to information available on other solidstyled systems.

    Effects of high humidity and temperature stress on pollen membrane integrity and pollen vigour in Nicotiana tabacum (1989)
    Springer

    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Keywords: Humidity ; Temperature stress ; Nicotiana tabacum ; Pollen germination ; Pollen membrane
    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Summary The prolonged exposure of pollen Nicotiana tabacum to high humidity at both room temperature and 38° C did not affect membrane integrity as revealed by the fluorochromatic reaction (FCR) test, but did affect pollen vigour. At room temperature germination was not affected, although tube growth was reduced; at 38° C, there was both a reduction in tube growth and delayed germination. When the pollen was subjected to 1 h hydration followed by 1 h desiccation (up to a maximum of four cycles) at room temperature, a reduction in the FCR, germination and tube length after each desiccation treatment was observed. Subsequent hydration fully restored the FCR, but only partially restored germination and tube growth. At 38° C, however, FCR, germination, and tube growth were drastically reduced. The implications of these results on the relationship between FCR and germinability, the responses of pollen exposed to humidity and temperature stress in the field, and on pollen storage are discussed.
