Ultrastructural organization of two tapetal types in angiosperms.

چکیده
The development of preparation techniques that include freeze fracturing provide an ideal method for studying the differentiation of plant tissues in the scanning electron microscope. This is illustrated with reference to tapetal development in Catananche caerulea, which has a plasmodial tapetum, and in Lolium perenne, which has a secretory tapetum.

The cysteine protease CEP1, a key executor involved in tapetal programmed cell death, regulates pollen development in Arabidopsis.
Tapetal programmed cell death (PCD) is a prerequisite for pollen grain development in angiosperms, and cysteine proteases are the most ubiquitous hydrolases involved in plant PCD. We identified a papain-like cysteine protease, CEP1, which is involved in tapetal PCD and pollen development in Arabidopsis thaliana. CEP1 is expressed specifically in the tapetum from stages 5 to 11 of anther develop...

متن کاملAccumulation of smooth cisternae in the tapetal cells of Ulex europaeus L. (Papilionoideae).
In addition to the events occurring in the tapetal cells of most angiosperm species (cell wall lysis, endoplasmic reticulum development and sporopollenin deposition on the outer face of the cells) the tapetum of Ulex europaeus L. exhibits two characteristics. No orbicules, generally associated with the locular face of the secretory tapetum of angiosperms, are found, but some intracellular macro...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal Production of Reactive Oxygen Species by NADPH Oxidase Is Critical for Tapetal Programmed Cell Death and Pollen Development in Arabidopsis.
Male sterility in angiosperms has wide applications in agriculture, particularly in hybrid crop breeding and gene flow control. Microspores develop adjacent to the tapetum, a layer of cells that provides nutrients for pollen development and materials for pollen wall formation. Proper pollen development requires programmed cell death (PCD) of the tapetum, which requires transcriptional cascades ...
متن کاملPhagosome degradation in the tapetal retinal pigment epithelium of the opossum.
Ultrastructural and cytochemical features of phagosome degradation were examined in the tapetal retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of the opossum. Didelphis virginiana. The tapetal RPE cells of the opossum measure as much as 100 micrometers in thickness, and the phagosomes traverse these cells so as to occupy a narrow region along the basal border. Both ultrastructural and cytochemical observatio...
