Abstract

|
|
This study has been carried out to investigate the ultrastructural changes, formation of storage materials in endosperm cells with electron microscope during the seed formation of Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer.
In the early stage of seed formation with green seed coat, the endosperm was cellular type. Cell plate was largely composed of dictyosome vesicles in early stage of wall formation after mitosis. Central vacuole was gradually subdivided into several small-sized vacuoles. During the differentiation of plastids, some proplastid was replaced by amyloplast with starch grains and lamellar structure. A number of mitochondria with well developed cristae were distributed in cytoplasm. Rough endoplasmic reticulum, dictyosome, microbody, free ribosomes and polysomes were evenly distributed in cytoplasm.
Spherical spherosomes were formed from dictyosome containing the lipid materials of even electron density. Protein bodies were formed by interfusing between vacuoles and vesicles derived from rough endoplasmic reticulum which contained the amorphous protein of high electron density.
