  • Tissues and Other Levels of Organization MODULE - 1 Diversity and Evolution of Life
    Tissues and Other Levels of Organization MODULE - 1 Diversity and Evolution of Life 5 Notes TISSUES AND OTHER LEVELS OF ORGANIZATION You have just learnt that cell is the fundamental structural and functional unit of organisms and that bodies of organisms are made up of cells of various shapes and sizes. Groups of similar cells aggregate to collectively perform a particular function. Such groups of cells are termed “tissues”. This lesson deals with the various kinds of tissues of plants and animals. OBJECTIVES After completing this lesson, you will be able to : z define tissues; z classify plant tissues; z name the various kinds of plant tissues; z enunciate the tunica corpus theory and histogen theory; z classify animal tissues; z describe the structure and function of various kinds of epithelial tissues; z describe the structure and function of various kinds of connective tissues; z describe the structure and function of muscular tissue; z describe the structure and function of nervous tissue. 5.1 WHAT IS A TISSUE Organs such as stem, and roots in plants, and stomach, heart and lungs in animals are made up of different kinds of tissues. A tissue is a group of cells with a common origin, structure and function. Their common origin means they are derived from the same layer (details in lesson No. 20) of cells in the embryo. Being of a common origin, there are similar in structure and hence perform the same function. Several types of tissues organise to form an organ. Example : Blood, bone, and cartilage are some examples of animal tissues whereas parenchyma, collenchyma, xylem and phloem are different tissues present in the plants.

  • The Genomics of Wood Formation in Angiosperm Trees
    The Genomics of Wood Formation in Angiosperm Trees Xinqiang He and Andrew T. Groover Abstract Advances in genomic science have enabled comparative approaches that can evaluate the evolution of genes and mechanisms underlying phenotypic traits relevant to angiosperm forest trees. Wood formation is an excellent subject for com- parative genomics, as it is an ancestral trait for angiosperms and has undergone significant modification in different angiosperm lineages. This chapter discusses some of the traits associated with wood formation, what is currently known about the genes and mechanisms regulating these traits, and how comparative evolution- ary genomic studies can be undertaken to provide more comprehensive views of the evolution and development of wood formation in angiosperms. Keywords Wood formation • Wood development • Wood evolution • Transcriptional regulation • Epigenetics • Comparative genomics Genomic Perspectives on the Evolutionary Origins and Variation in Angiosperm Wood Introduction The evolutionary and developmental biology of wood are fundamental to under- standing the amazing diversification of angiosperms. While flower morphology and reproductive characters associated with angiosperms have been the focus of numer- ous genetic and genomic evo-devo studies, wood development is a relatively neglected trait of angiosperm evolution and development that is now tractable for comparative and evolutionary genomic studies.

Case presentation: We probably report the fifth case of primary Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the renal parenchyma in a 61-year-old female presenting with intermittent distending pain for 2 months. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) revealed hydronephrosis of the right kidney, but a tumor cannot be excluded completely. Finally, nephrectomy was performed, and histological analysis determined that the diagnosis was kidney parenchyma squamous cell carcinoma involving perinephric adipose tissue. Conclusions: The present case emphasizes that it is difficult to make an accurate preoperative diagnosis with the presentation of hidden malignancy, such as hydronephrosis.

  • Methods for Measuring Frost Tolerance of Conifers: a Systematic Map
    Review Methods for Measuring Frost Tolerance of Conifers: A Systematic Map Anastasia-Ainhoa Atucha Zamkova *, Katherine A. Steele and Andrew R. Smith School of Natural Sciences, Bangor University, Bangor LL57 2UW, Gwynedd, UK; [email protected] (K.A.S.); [email protected] (A.R.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: Frost tolerance is the ability of plants to withstand freezing temperatures without unrecov- erable damage. Measuring frost tolerance involves various steps, each of which will vary depending on the objectives of the study. This systematic map takes an overall view of the literature that uses frost tolerance measuring techniques in gymnosperms, focusing mainly on conifers. Many different techniques have been used for testing, and there has been little change in methodology since 2000. The gold standard remains the field observation study, which, due to its cost, is frequently substituted by other techniques. Closed enclosure freezing tests (all non-field freezing tests) are done using various types of equipment for inducing artificial freezing. An examination of the literature indicates that several factors have to be controlled in order to measure frost tolerance in a manner similar to observation in a field study. Equipment that allows controlling the freezing rate, frost exposure time and thawing rate would obtain results closer to field studies. Other important factors in study design are the number of test temperatures used, the range of temperatures selected and the decrements between the temperatures, which should be selected based on expected frost tolerance of the tissue and species.

  • Dicot/Monocot Root Anatomy the Figure Shown Below Is a Cross Section of the Herbaceous Dicot Root Ranunculus. the Vascular Tissu
    Dicot/Monocot Root Anatomy The figure shown below is a cross section of the herbaceous dicot root Ranunculus. The vascular tissue is in the very center of the root. The ground tissue surrounding the vascular cylinder is the cortex. An epidermis surrounds the entire root. The central region of vascular tissue is termed the vascular cylinder. Note that the innermost layer of the cortex is stained red. This layer is the endodermis. The endodermis was derived from the ground meristem and is properly part of the cortex. All the tissues inside the endodermis were derived from procambium. Xylem fills the very middle of the vascular cylinder and its boundary is marked by ridges and valleys. The valleys are filled with phloem, and there are as many strands of phloem as there are ridges of the xylem. Note that each phloem strand has one enormous sieve tube member. Outside of this cylinder of xylem and phloem, located immediately below the endodermis, is a region of cells called the pericycle. These cells give rise to lateral roots and are also important in secondary growth. Label the tissue layers in the following figure of the cross section of a mature Ranunculus root below. 1 The figure shown below is that of the monocot Zea mays (corn). Note the differences between this and the dicot root shown above. 2 Note the sclerenchymized endodermis and epidermis. In some monocot roots the hypodermis (exodermis) is also heavily sclerenchymized. There are numerous xylem points rather than the 3-5 (occasionally up to 7) generally found in the dicot root.

Cattail (Typha angustifolia L.) uncontrolled growth causes several problems to human activities and local biodiversity, but this also may lead to competition and further problems for this species itself. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate anatomical modifications on T. angustifolia plants from different population densities, once it can help to understand its biology. Roots and leaves were collected from natural populations growing under high and low densities. These plant materials were fixed and submitted to usual plant microtechnique procedures. Slides were observed and photographed under light microscopy and images were analyzed in the UTHSCSA-Imagetool software. The experimental design was completely randomized with two treatments and ten replicates, data were submitted to one-way ANOVA and Scott-Knott test at p<0.05.

Samples were collected at several heights from two Scots pine stems growing in fresh coniferous stand as codominant trees. Transverse and radial sections were cut from the samples and stained with acetocarmine to detect the nuclei and with I2KI to show starch grains. Unstained sections were also observed under ultraviolet (UV) light to reveal cell wall lignification. The shapes of the nuclei in ray and axial parenchyma cells differed: the axial parenchyma cells had rounded nuclei, while the nuclei of the ray parenchyma cells were elongated. The lifespan of the parenchyma cells was found to be 16–42 years; the longest-lived were cells from the base of the stem, and the shortest-lived were from the base of the crown.

  • Immunoprofiling of Rice Root Cortex Reveals Two Cortical Subdomains
    METHODS published: 07 January 2016 doi: 10.3389/fpls.2015.01139 Immunoprofiling of Rice Root Cortex Reveals Two Cortical Subdomains Sophia Henry, Fanchon Divol, Mathilde Bettembourg, Charlotte Bureau, Emmanuel Guiderdoni, Christophe Périn * and Anne Diévart * CIRAD, UMR AGAP, Montpellier, France The formation and differentiation of aerenchyma, i.e., air-containing cavities that are critical for flooding tolerance, take place exclusively in the cortex. The understanding of development and differentiation of the cortex is thus an important issue; however, studies on this tissue are limited, partly because of the lack of available molecular tools. We screened a commercially available library of cell wall antibodies to identify markers of cortical tissue in rice roots. Out of the 174 antibodies screened, eight were cortex-specific. Our analysis revealed that two types of cortical tissues are present in rice root seedlings. We named these cell layers “inner” and “outer” based on their location relative to the stele. We then used the antibodies to clarify cell identity in lateral roots. Without these markers, previous studies could not distinguish between the cortex and sclerenchyma in small lateral roots. By immunostaining lateral root sections, we showed that the internal ground tissue in small lateral roots has outer cortical identity. Edited by: Elison B.
