Pollen sporoplasts: dissolution of pollen walls.
4-Methylmorpholine N-oxide monohydrate (MMNO.H(2)O), a potent solvent for polysaccharides, is an effective vehicle for release of membrane-enclosed male gametophytes (sporoplasts) from spore walls. This release occurs in minutes when pollen (Lilium longiflorum Thunb.) is suspended in a melt of MMNO.H(2)O at 75 degrees C. Continued heating at 75 degrees C leads to distintegration of the exine ;s...
متن کاملFIB-SEM: A new technique for investigating pollen walls
The typically distinctive and elaborate external structures and sculpturing of pollen grains have been widely used in the taxonomy and systematics of the flowering plants. The family Acanthaceae is a striking example, where the widely diverse external pollen grain morphology has proved useful in determining relationships between taxa. Detailed information for external pollen wall morphology has...
متن کاملFinancial markets as adaptive systems
– We show, by studying in detail the market prices of options on liquid markets, that the market has empirically corrected the simple, but inadequate Black-Scholes formula to account for two important statistical features of asset fluctuations: “fat tails” and correlations in the scale of fluctuations. These aspects, although not included in the pricing models, are very precisely reflected in t...
متن کاملBent Domain Walls as Braneworlds
We consider domain walls embedded in curved backgrounds as an approximation for braneworld scenarios. We give a large class of new exact solutions, exhausting the possibilities for describing one and two walls for the cases where the curvature of both the bulk and the wall is locally constant. In the case of two walls, we find solutions where each wall has positive tension. An interesting prope...
متن کاملDependable Information Infrastructures as Complex Adaptive Systems
Information infrastructures, such as the Internet and Computational Grids, have enabled a networked computing and communication environment. Although many organizations depend on network-centric information operations to support critical missions, existing information infrastructures provide little guarantee of the dependability of network-centric computing and communication. This paper discuss...
