Tracheary elements that resemble secondary xylem in calli derived from the conifers, Torreya nucifera and Cryptomeria japonica
Source abstract
Abstract
Differentiated cells were recognized in calli derived from needles of Torreya nucifera and in calli derived from immature zygotic embryos of Cryptomeria japonica. Some differentiated cells resembled tracheary elements of primary xylem with spiral or reticulate thickening of cell walls. Other cells resembled tracheary elements with thick cell walls and bordered pits, which are features of secondary xylem. These tracheary elements were formed in cell clusters. Tracheary elements in calli of T. nucifera formed more highly developed structures, such as bordered pits and spiral thickening, than those of C. japonica. Cultured cells derived from conifers might provide a good model for studies of the differentiation of secondary xylem in vitro.
