I am coming
to believe that plants are more complex than animals, even more complex than
females. Female plants must be the most difficult things on Earth to understand!
This isn’t
even the tip of the tip of the iceberg when it comes to diversity in plant
reproduction. There are also different ways to produce seeds. The gymnosperms have unenclosed seeds
(gymno = naked, and sperm = seed). Gymnosperms include the conifers (cone producers), the cycads that we talked a little about a few weeks ago, and the gnetum plants. Gnetum plants live close to the equator
around the globe and include the Ephedra
species. It is from these plants that we get ephedrine and pseudoephedrine that
work to relieve allergy and cold congestion.
The other
type of seed plants is the angiosperms
(angio = hidden). These are the flowering plants that have seeds encased in
fruits or other structures that help to protect them and to encourage their
dispersal.
One way that
the gymnosperms and angiosperms differ is in how they inherit their
plastid organelles. But even here there is a lot of overlap and exceptions;
plants just keep getting more complex.
Gymnosperms
have there seeds exposed on the scales
of
the cones, while angiosperms have the protected
inside
the fruit (except for strawberries).
|
But cpDNA is
much more passive, they do not have to do a huge amount of work to get to the
ovule of the pollinated plant. The pollen tube grows down to the ovule and
delivers the sperm cells right to the egg. There must be some other reason, but
I don’t know what it might be.
However,
there seem to be more exceptions in angiosperm inheritance of cpDNA than there is in animal mtDNA. A few families of plants, like alfalfa (Medicago sativa) and kiwi fruit vine (Actinidia deliciosa), have a strict
paternal inheritance of cpDNA. This is odd since, the angiosperms have a couple of
mechanisms for keeping the plastids out of the male gametes.
In many
species, when the generative nucleus divides to form sperm, the plastids are
partitioned off, and are not included in the sperm cells. This works to ensure
maternal inheritance. In other species, the sperm cells may include plastids,
but these quickly degenerate and are not delivered to the ovule. Somehow, the
alfalfa plants have overcome these mechanisms and even invented a new one to
eliminate or exclude the plastids from the ovule, giving strict paternal
inheritance.
Going beyond
the alfalfa and kiwi fruit ability to preserve their paternal plastids is the
fact that a full 20% of angiosperms can show (but don’t have to show),
bipaternal inheritance of cpDNA. This is called potential bipaternal plastid inheritance (PBPI) and is controlled by a male
gametic trait, called of all things - PBPI trait! Therefore, the fairly strict
maternal inheritance of mtDNA in animals (blue mussels excepted) is not matched
by cpDNA in angiosperms.
But it gets
weirder. The angiosperm exception is normal for the gymnosperm. Gymnosperms
tend to have paternal inheritance patterns for cpDNA. This difference is
important to note, since scientists often try to use cpDNA inheritance patterns
to track seed movements around the world and through evolutionary time, just
like human populations are often tracked using mitochondrial ancestry and
inheritance.
But this
must be frustrating, because there are also exceptions in the paternal
inheritance pattern in gymosperms. The Chinese fir (Cunninghamia lanceolata), which
isn’t a fir, is native to Asia but was brought to America in the 1800’s.
Remember that before molecular biology, most taxonomic classifications were made
on just the morphology (shape and look) of an organism, and its grouping and
name were based on how it compared to other organisms. Names often get stuck in
the language and are hard to change, so many of the misnomers persist.
But back to
the Chinese fir. This gymnosperm is a conifer that can grown 150 feet tall, but
flaunts its individuality by having a maternal inheritance pattern for cpDNA – much more
angiosperm-like behavior than gymnosperm. And this is even odder because the Chinese
fir is an older gymnosperm, a much more distant relative to the angiosperms
than many gymnosperms that have a strict paternal cpDNA inheritance.
Gymnosperms
that show maternal cpDNA inheritance are rare, or just less studied, so one
might assume that paternal cpDNA inheritance is fairly strict – wrong. Many
gymnosperms have bipaternal inheritance patterns of plastids, so the mechanism
might be different from angiosperms, but is no more consistent than that of the
flowering plants.
Finally,
there is the issue of crossbreeding. In this animal mtDNA and plant cpDNA seem
to be similar. Whatever the dominant form of inheritance is seen in natural
breedings, the numbers get screwed up when cross breeding occurs. We saw that
paternal inheritance of mtDNA in mice was much likely in the mating of
different species (interspecific breeding).
The
similarity between mitochondrial and plastid inheritance in hybrids
brings up another issue – what about mitochondrial inheritance patterns in
plants?
It turns out
that most plants that have been studied for mtDNA inheritance have a maternal
inheritance pattern, just like animals. Amazingly, this includes the gymnosperms,
most of which have paternal inheritance of cpDNA. But even some plants with
maternal cpDNA patterns can pass on paternal mitochondria. An example of this
is the banana - tomorrow morning you can feel like a rebel for garnishing your
cornflakes with such an outlaw fruit.
However, the
reason would be different. Remember that sperm have their mitochondria in their
tails, and in most animals, this is not included in what enters the egg or is
degraded just after entering. But few plants have flagellar sperm (like the cycads
we talked about before). The sperm mtDNA is not exposed to anymore oxygen
radical damage than the ovule mtDNA, yet there is most often uniparental,
maternal inheritance.
So
mitochondria and chloroplasts both work in energy production, both evolved
through endosymbiosis, both have single, circular chromosomes (with
exceptions), and both have uniparental inheritance patterns (with exceptions).
Next week, let’s look a behavior that is different in these two organelles.

ReplyDeleteIt is no secret that I have a very deep and personal relationship with God. I have pushed and resisted that relationship this past year through all the bullshit I have had to go through living with Herpes but once again, God is bigger than my stubbornness and broke through that outbreak cold sore and all I had Genital Herpes. For me personally, hearing over and over how I am not good enough has really invaded my mind in the worst way possible. I completely shut down and I was just waking up like is this how life going to end this temporary herpes outbreak “fuck everybody with herpes if you know what I mean” but let's be honest here...
It is a cowardly to say no to herbal medicine. It is fear based. And it is dishonest to what my heart wants. Don't build a wall around yourself because you are afraid of herbals made or taking a bold step especially when it's come to health issues and getting cure. So many young men/ women tell me over and over that Dr Itua is going to scam me but I give him a try to today I feel like no one will ever convince me about herbal medicine I accept Dr Itua herbal medicine because it's cure my herpes just two weeks of drinking it and i have been living for a year and months now I experience outbreak no more, You can contact him if you need his herbal medicine for any such diseases like, Herpes, Schizophrenia,Cancer,Scoliosis,Fibromyalgia,Fluoroquinolone Toxicity Syndrome Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva.Fatal Familial Insomnia Factor V Leiden Mutation ,Epilepsy Dupuytren's disease,Desmoplastic,Diabetes ,Coeliac disease,Creutzfeldt–Jakob,Dairies,Lyme Disease,Epilepsy, ,ALS,Hepatitis,Copd,Parkinson disease.Genetic disease,Fibrodysplasia disease,Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Men/Woman infertility, bowel disease ,Huntington's disease ,Diabetes,Fibroid. disease,Lupus,Lipoid Storage diseases( Gauchers disease),Polycystic Disease.,Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy, Ataxia,Cirrhosis of Liver,Arthritis,Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis,Alzheimer's disease,Adrenocortical carcinoma.Asthma,Allergic,HIV, Epilepsy, Infertility, Love Spell,. Email..drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com then what's app.+2348149277967.... My advice to any sick men/women out there is simple... Be Always an open book. Be gut wrenching honest about yourself, your situation, and what you are all about. Don't hold anything back. Holding back will get you nowhere...maybe a one way ticket to lonelyville and that is NOT somewhere you want to be. So my final truth...and I'm just starting to grasp this one..
WHAT A GREAT MIRACLE THAT I HAVE EVER SEE IN MY LIFE. My names are Clara David I’m a citizen of USA, My younger sister was sicking of breast cancer and her name is Sandra David I and my family have taking her to all kind of hospital in USA still yet no good result.
