Dehydration protection provided by a maternal cuticle improves offspring fitness in the moss Funaria hygrometrica.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS In bryophytes the sporophyte offspring are in contact with, nourished from, and partially surrounded by the maternal gametophyte throughout their lifespan. During early development, the moss sporophyte is covered by the calyptra, a cap of maternal gametophyte tissue that has a multilayered cuticle. In this study the effects on sporophyte offspring fitness of removing the mat...
متن کاملProtonema of the moss Funaria hygrometrica can function as a lead (Pb) adsorbent
Water contamination by heavy metals from industrial activities is a serious environmental concern. To mitigate heavy metal toxicity and to recover heavy metals for recycling, biomaterials used in phytoremediation and bio-sorbent filtration have recently drawn renewed attention. The filamentous protonemal cells of the moss Funaria hygrometrica can hyperaccumulate lead (Pb) up to 74% of their dry...
متن کاملVisualization of the endoplasmic reticulum in living buds and branches of the moss Funaria hygrometrica by confocal laser scanning microscopy
Caulonemata of the moss Funaria hygrometrica were vitally stained with the fluorescent, lipophilic carbocyanine dye DiOC6(3) and examined via confocal laser scanning microscopy. Although DiOCfi(3) stained nearly all of the organdies, cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) could be resolved under favorable conditions and appeared as a network of irregular polygons, interspersed with lamellar cister...
متن کاملMoss (Physcomitrella patens) GH3 proteins act in auxin homeostasis.
Auxins are hormones involved in many cellular, physiological and developmental processes in seed plants and in mosses such as Physcomitrella patens. Control of auxin levels is achieved in higher plants via synthesis of auxin conjugates by members of the GH3 family. The role of the two GH3-like proteins from P. patens for growth and auxin homeostasis was therefore analysed. The in vivo-function ...
متن کاملDetermination of Some Heavy Metals Levels in Funaria Hygrometrica in Dutsinma Town of Katsina State, Nigeria
The levels of some heavy metals were determined in Funaria hygrometrica (moss plant) harvested from the streets of Dutsinma town of Katsina State of Nigeria using atomic absorption spectrometry. Over the years the town has witnessed influx of people from neighbouring villages, as a Local government headquarters. The mean level of the metals in the study area varied between Cd (0.06μgg and 0.43μ...
