Abstract

The development of the female gametophyte of Corydalis albipetala, C. ambigua, C. filistipes, C. nobilis, C. solida, C. ophiocarpa have been comparatively investigated using laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) and light microscope. An archesporium was originated from one of the outmost parietal cells beneath the one-layered epidermis of protuberant nucellus, and acted directly as a megaspore mother cell (MMC). These species had linear tetrads after successional meiotic division during the megasprogenesis. A functional megasprore developed from one of the tetrad in the chalazal end, and the rest three being degenerated. The developmental type of the female gametophyte was monosporic in accordance with the Polygonum type. Prior to anthesis the female gametophyte was organized. So mature embryo sac was comprised a three-celled egg apparatus, three large antipodals were developed from the apex of each antipodal cell, and extended toward micropylar end to be contacted with egg apparatus. Two synergids were usually observed as degenerated condition, and in this time the apices of antipodal haustoria were connected with the degenerated synergids. The developmental characteristics of seven-nucleate female gametophytes were common in all the species investigated. But the shape of mature embryo sac was ovoidal in C. albipetala, C. filistipes, C. ophiocarpa and C. solida, reflexed in C. ambigua, and rather flattened ovoidal in C. nobilis. Also, the type of megasporangium was anatropous in all the species except C. ambigua with campylotropous ovule.

현호색속 6종의 대배우자체 발달과정이 공초점현미경(LSCM)과 광학현미경으로 비교, 관찰되었다; 흰현호색, 왜현호색, 섬현호색, Corydalis nobilis, C. solida, C. ophiocarpa. 포원세포는 돌출된 주심조직의 단층 표피 밑에 존재하는 측벽세포의 최외곽층 세포들에서 하나가 기원하였으며, 직접 대포자모세포로서 작용하였다. 대포자모세포는 대포자발생과정을 통하여 연속적으로 2회 분열한 후 선상의 4분체가 되었으며, 이들 중 주공쪽의 3개는 퇴화하고 합점쪽의 1개만이 기능성 대포자로 발달하였다. 자성배우자체의 발달 유형은 단포자성, 마디풀형(Polygonum type)이었다. 개화 전 자성배우자체는 성숙하였고, 따라서 성숙된 배낭은 3개의 세포로 이루어진 난장치, 거대한 핵이 있는 3개의 대형 반족세포 및 2차핵이 존재하는 1개의 중앙세포로 구성되어 있었다. 반족세포 흡기는 반족세포의 정단에서부터 각각 발달되었으며, 주공쪽으로 신장되어 난장치와 접촉하였다. 2개의 조세포는 보통 퇴화된 상태로 관찰되었으며, 이때 반족세포 흡기의 정단은 퇴화된 조세포와 연결되었다. 7-세포성 자성배우자체의 발달과정상 특징은 조사된 모든 종에서 공통적이었으나, 배낭의 형태는 흰현호색, 섬현호색, C. solida 및 C. ophiocarpa에서는 난형이었으며, 왜현호색에서는 반곡형인 반면 C. nobilis에서는 다소 납작한 난형이었다. 또한 대포자낭의 유형은 모든 종에서 도생배주였으나 왜현호색에서는 만곡배주였다.
