The developmental cytology of the elaiosome of
Dicentra formosa (Andr.)Walp. was investigated from the
time of initial differentiation until complete maturation.
Light and transmission electron microscopy studies
showed that the elaiosome becomes differentiated from
epidermal tissue in the prefertilized ovule. At this time
the cells are characterized by their large...
A light and electron microscope study of Corylus avellana L.
vegetative buds infested with the eriophyoid mites, Cecidiophyopsis
vermiformis Nal. and Phycoptella avellanae Nal., is reported. Descriptions
are given of changes in infested stipule tissue. The
nipple-like proliferations (enations) which arise on the infested
stipule surface are covered by a...
