Advances in Programmed Cell Death in Higher Plants I
|
Abstract:
Plant programmed cell death(PCD),the details of which are becoming a focus of intensive research in biology, is a ubiquitous phenomenon and plays an improtant biological role in the develpoment of organs and whole organisms and in interactions with the environment.During higher plant development,root cap cells,tracheary elements(TEs),tapetalcells,endosperm cells,suspensor cells,aleurone cells,megaspore cells,help cells and antipodal cells,etc.undergo PCD to some degree.In addition,senescence also involves PCD.This paper mainly reviewed PCD research progress in higher plant development in recent years,including forms and causes of cell death and PCD morphological and biochemical features in higher plants;PCD in development of nutritive organs(root ,stem and leaf) and reproductive organs(flower ,fruit and seed),evolution and biological rloes of plant PCD were further discussed in the paper.Key words: plant; programmed cell death(PCD); development; evolution; biological roles pressare,which will show a more thorough and complete picture and contribute to a better understanding of it.
