A new interpretation of plasmodesmatal ultrastructure.

Abstract:

:It is shown that simple, unbranched, plasmodesmata between young xylem ray cells of willow have no direct intercellular continuity apart from the plasmalemma which limits the cytoplasm and lines the plasmodesmatal canal. Each plasmodesma is traversed by a 200 Å diameter tubule (the desmotubule) which has a wall with probably 11 subunits arranged around a central cavity through which runs a 40 Å diameter rod. This rod is connected to the inside of the tubule wall, by fine filaments. At the ends of each plasmodesma the plasmalemma and cell wall are closely appressed to the tubule, thus precluding direct continuity between the cytoplasm of adjacent cells. Through the central part of the plasmodesmata the tubule is separated from the plasmalemma by a 90-100 Å wide gap. Cytoplasmic microtubules in the same tissue have a diameter of approximately 250 Å and a wall probably composed of 13 subunits: both desmotubules and cytoplasmic microtubules therefore have a centre-to-centre subunit spacing of about 47 Å. It is suggested that the desmotubules are not microtubules but may be nuclear spindle fibres which become trapped in the wall during cell plate formation. The endoplasmic reticulum, while closely approaching the plasmodesmata, is not continuous across them. It is thought most unlikely that the endoplasmic reticulum traverses plasmodesmata, as the dimensions of the central tubule - found here as well as by other workers - are smaller than those which would be expected to allow a stable molecular configuration in a unit membrane. The plasmalemma, where it lines the plasmodesmatal canal, appears to have particulate subunits in the outer opaque layers and the presence of these subunits may be attributable to the need for stability in membranes arranged about so small a radius.
