Histology Of Somatic Embryogenesis In Cultured Leaf Explants Of Pistachio(Pistacia Veral), Ahmet Onay
Histology Of Somatic Embryogenesis In Cultured Leaf Explants Of Pistachio(Pistacia Veral), Ahmet Onay
Turkish Journal of Botany
The histology of somatic embryo initiation and development in pistachio ( Pistacia were L.) embryogenic masses (EMS) derived from leaf explants was examined using light microscopy. Explants with somatic embryos at different developmental stages were fixed for histological examination, cut into 10 µm thick sections, stained with hematoxylin-eosin and observed microscopically. The histological examination showed that the two types of cell clusters induced originated from explants and were morphologically different. These results clearly demonstrate that the induction and development of somatic embryos from leaf explants of pistachio were from single epidermal or subepidermal cells.

Germin-Like Oxalate Oxidase Activity Increase In Auxin-Treated Wheat Coleoptiles, Mahmut Çalişkan, Andrew C. Cuming
Germin-Like Oxalate Oxidase Activity Increase In Auxin-Treated Wheat Coleoptiles, Mahmut Çalişkan, Andrew C. Cuming
Turkish Journal of Botany
Oxalic acid or more commonly its salts, oxalates, are widely distributed throughout the plant kingdom. Oxalic acid is generally considered an inert product of metabolism and its accumulation is toxic to tissues. Therefore, the enzymes degrading oxalic acid have received considerable attention. Oxalate oxidase is an oxidoreductase which degrades oxalate into CO_2 and H_2O_2 . Recently, oxalate oxidase was shown to have high amino acid homology with germin proteins and at the same time cereal germin proteins were shown to have oxalate oxidase activity. Germin gene expression was shown to be auxin responsive. It was well demonstrated that coleoptile cells …
Structure Of The Stigma And Style In Capsicum Eximiumand The Effects Of Pollination, A. Naci̇ Onuş
Structure Of The Stigma And Style In Capsicum Eximiumand The Effects Of Pollination, A. Naci̇ Onuş
Turkish Journal of Botany
Since the stigma surface provides the first point of contact for pollen grains, the initial pollen-pistil interaction takes place between these two structures. It is, therefore, important to understand the stucture of the stigma, as well as the style, in order to reveal the nature of pollen-pistil interaction. The aim of this study was to gather more information about interactions between pollen and pistil in Capsicum eximium A.T.Hunz Solanaceae by studying immature, mature unpollinated and mature pollinated styles. It was found that most features of the stigma and style of C. eximiumresembled those of other genera in the Solanaceae.
