Title

Studies on the Leaf Nodules V The Formation of Knobs by the Effect of Antibiotics on theArdisia crispa andA. punctata

Tamotsu YAMADA Shokubutsugaku Zasshi 1955. doi:10.15281/jplantres1887.68.267

Other claims from this paper (8)

Intervention effect Antibiotics induced knobs and stopped growth in A. crispa seedlings.
Intervention effect Antibiotics induced knobs and stopped growth in A. punctata seedlings.
Intervention effect A. japonica did not form knobs after antibiotic or heat treatment.
Association Knob formation increased with antibiotic concentration and treatment duration.
Observation A. crispa had a higher knob-forming ratio than A. punctata under the same treatment.
Observation Knobs contained epidermis, cortex and central cylinder, with no meristem or leaf-nodule-bacteria detected.
Observation Knob structure resembled that after heat treatment.
Mechanism The authors proposed that a substance secreted by dying leaf-nodule bacteria induces knob formation and may contribute to leaf nodules.

Three‐dimensional architecture of the higher plant nucleolonema disclosed on serial ultrathin sections

S Sato Biology of the Cell 1992. doi:10.1016/0248-4900(92)90144-p

Other claims from this paper (10)

Observation Silver staining revealed lateral and transverse nucleolonema segments.
Observation Lateral segments had three filament configurations.
Observation Along sections, type I appeared first, then type II or III, and finally type I again.
Observation Type II and III widths remained about 1.0 μm and type I was significantly narrower.
Observation Type II and III lateral filaments had intermittent knobs.
Mechanism The authors infer a 0.35-μm filament coiled into an approximately 1.0-μm solenoid.
Mechanism The proposed solenoid explains open and closed argyrophilic rings.
Observation The elementary solenoid filament was sometimes loosened.
Observation Argyrophilic proteins appeared in the axial space of the solenoid.
Observation DNA and RNA were not detectable in the axial space.
