    The microtubule cytoskeleton and the rounding of isolated generative cells ofNicotiana tabacum (1992)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 5 (1992), S. 64-71 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary Upon squashing of the pollen grain, the isolated generative cell ofNicotiana tabacum looses its spindle shape to become spherical; this phenomenon is independent of the sucrose concentration used. The time necessary for this change can vary from 1 min (0% sucrose) to 20 min (30% sucrose). The microtubular cytoskeleton was studied by means of immunofluorescence and electron microscopy. Just after isolation, 5 to 15 clearly visible bundles in microtubules organized in a basket-like structure are present. After 15 min in medium with 15% sucrose, the microtubular cytoskeleton disappears, and a diffusely spread tubulin can be observed. Neither the addition of 10–20 μM taxol to the medium, nor the omission of Ca2+ to the medium has any effect on the changes in cell shape and loss of microtubular bundles after isolation.

    Pre-fertilization degeneration of both synergids in Brassica campestris ovules (1988)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 1 (1988), S. 208-216 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Schlagwort(e): Megagametophyte ; Synergids ; Brassica campestris ; Ultrastructure
    Quelle: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: 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.

    Quelle: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary The availability of generative cells, sperm cells, embryo sacs and egg cells from angiosperm plants in isolated conditions has opened up many prospects: study of the mechanism of recognition and fusion between gametes of opposite sex and detailed observation of the process of fertilization, biochemical and genetic analysis of gamete-specific components and genetic engineering in combination with in vitro fertilization. This review provides a list of about ninety publications, in which the isolation of male or female angiosperm gametes and the closely related generative cells and embryo sacs is reported. The species used are summarized in two tables. A description is given of the diverse isolation techniques, which consist of enzymatic digestion, bursting of pollen by osmotic shock, squashing, grinding and micro-dissection. Viability of isolated cells and yield, two important aspects of biotechnological manipulation, are emphasized. A critical evaluation of the most significant results obtained so far with isolated material is presented together with notes on prospects for the future.

    Video microscopic observations of living, isolated embryo sacs of Nicotiana and their component cells (1992)
    Springer
    Sexual plant reproduction 5 (1992), S. 156-162 
    Details
    ISSN: 1432-2145
    Schlagwort(e): Female germ unit ; Nicotiana ; Megagametophyte ; Organelle movement ; Video microscopy
    Quelle: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary Living embryo sacs and megagametophytic cells of Nicotiana alata and Nicotiana tabacum were obtained using enzymatic maceration and microdissection. The yields of isolated embryo sacs, egg apparatus and central cells were up to 35%, 40% and 35%, respectively. Vectorial movement of organelles and undulations of tubular structures, presumably endoplasmic reticulum, were observed in eggs, synergids and central cells using video-enhanced microscopy. Despite evident viability using the fluorochromatic reaction, the egg displays much less organelle movement and therefore appears to be quiescent. The large vacuole of the central cell is traversed by mobile strands of cytoplasm through which organelles migrate. A polygonal network is located at the periphery of the central cell, which may contribute to anchorage of the cell with the embryo-sac wall. The observation of organelle movement provides direct evidence of the condition of the cell and may be a useful approach for assessing cell vigor.

    The organization of microtubules during generative-cell division inConvallaria majalis (1999)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 207 (1999), S. 147-153 
    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Schlagwort(e): Cell division ; Confocal microscopy ; Convallaria majalis ; Generative cell ; Liliaceae ; Microtubules

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary The organization of the microtubule cytoskeleton in the generative cell ofConvallaria majalis has been studied during migration of the cell through the pollen tube and its division into the two sperm cells. Analysis by conventional or confocal laser scanning microscopy after tubulin staining was used to investigate changes of the microtubule cytoskeleton during generative-cell migration and division in the pollen tube. Staining of DNA with 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole was used to correlate the rearrangement of microtubules with nuclear division during sperm cell formation. Before pollen germination the generative cell is spindle-shaped, with microtubules organized in bundles and distributed in the cell cortex to form a basketlike structure beneath the generative-cell plasma membrane. During generative-cell migration through the pollen tube, the organization of the microtubule bundles changes following nuclear division. A typical metaphase plate is not usually formed. The generative-cell division is characterized by the extension of microtubules concomitant with a significant cell elongation. After karyokinesis, microtubule bundles reorganize to form a phragmoplast between the two sperm nuclei. The microtubule organization during generative-cell division inConvallaria majalis shows some similarities but also differences to that in other members of the Liliaceae.

    Cytoskeletal changes during generative cell division and sperm formation inTradescantia virginiana (1989)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 150 (1989), S. 54-71 
    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Schlagwort(e): Generative cell ; Microtubules ; Mitosis ; Cytokinesis ; Pollen ; Sperm ; Tradescantia
    Quelle: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary Cytoskeletal organization and chromosome behavior were studied inTradescantia generative cells prior to and during sperm formation using in vitro grown pollen tubes and fluorescence staining methods. Before pollen germination, the crescent-shaped generative cell contains a reticulate microtubule (Mt) system. The cell elongates dramatically after germination, and its Mts assume a helical to longitudinal arrangement. Chromosome condensation is evident approximately 3hr after germination. Kinetochores appear as dark interruptions in the Mt array, and thus seem to attach directly to interphase fibers. No metaphase plate typical of other cells is observed with either DAPI or anti-tubulin staining. Instead, the chromosomes adopt a twisted or braided arrangement, with kinetochores distributed along the length of the cell and kinetochore fibers linked to each other and to surrounding fibers. Anaphase is characterized by a staggered, overlapping separation of chromosomes and by elongation of Mt branches connecting opposing kinetochore fibers. Cytokinesis appears to utilize a furrowing process; a phragmoplast or cell plate was never seen. As a result of these events, the sperm directly inherit their cytoskeleton from generative cell Mts involved in division. No actin fibers are observed at any stage using rhodamine-phalloidin staining. The results are discussed in terms of other reports on sperm formation, possible mitotic and cytokinetic mechanisms, and past distinctions between Mt arrays in higher plant somatic cells.

    Origin of sperm cell association in the “male germ unit” ofBrassica pollen (1989)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 149 (1989), S. 1-4 
    Details
    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Schlagwort(e): Brassica napus ; Cell division ; Male germ unit ; Pollen ; Sperm cells
    Quelle: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: 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.

    The organization of the cytoskeleton in the generative cell and sperms ofHyacinthus orientalis (1992)
    Springer
    Protoplasma 168 (1992), S. 41-50

    ISSN: 1615-6102
    Schlagwort(e): Pollen tube ; Microtubules ; Cellular division ; Generative cell ; Sperm cells

    Thema: Biologie
    Notizen: Summary The microtubular cytoskeleton of the generative cell (GC) ofHyacinthus orientalis has been studied until the formation of the sperm cells (SCs). Immunofluorescence procedures in combination with confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) has enabled the visualization of the organization of the microtubular cytoskeleton. Chemical fixation and freeze-fixation electron microscopy have been used to investigate the cytoskeleton and the ultrastructural organization of the GC and SCs. During pollen activation the GC is spindle-shaped. Microtubules (MTs) are organized as bundles and distributed in proximity of the GC plasmamembrane, forming a basket-like structure. Following migration through the pollen tube, the basket-like structure becomes more intertwined. During the nuclear division the MTs are involved in the segregation of the chromosomes and kinetochores are clearly discernible. Association with organelles is also observed. The chromosomes of the GC remain condensed until they separate in two sperm nuclei. The pre-prophase band was never observed. At the end of the GC division the microtubular network reorganizes in the two SCs.
