2.21-2.26. Transmission electron micrographs of transverse sections of the boundary zone
and necrophylactic periderm of wounded peach bark. Bar = 1 m. Fig. 2.21. Portion of a
shared boundary zone cell wall (CW) 8 days postwounding showing a simple pit area, and
associated plasmodesmata (P), and lamellate suberin linings (S). Fig. 2.22. High
magnification view of plasmodesmatal opening through the suberized portion of the boundary
zone cell wall. Fig. 2.23. Shared boundary zone cell wall (CW), at 12 days postwounding
with lamellate suberin linings (S) of differing thickness and the multivacuolate
appearance of a senescent boundary zone cell. Fig. 2.24. Portion of necrophylactic phellem
showing at bottom right a portion of the lumen and shared wall of the external phellogen
daughter cell (PDC), the most recently derived suberized phellem cell (P1) with thin
suberized secondary walls (S), and two older phellem cells (P2 and P3) showing thick
suberized secondary walls (S) and senescing cell cytoplasm. Fig. 2.25. Closer view of
shared necrophylactic phellem cell walls between P1 and P2 (CW1) and P2 and P3 (CW2) from
Fig. 2.24. Note the fine light and dark lamellations of the suberized secondary walls (S)
and the nonlamellate electron-lucid region of the secondary wall adjacent to the primary
wall (arrows). Fig. 2.26. Organelle-rich cytoplasm of a phellem cell of a necrophylactic
periderm sampled 14 days postwounding. Note lignified primary wall (CW), suberized
secondary walls (S), plasma membrane (PM), rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER),
mitochondrion (M), dictyosome (D), and associated vesicles. |
