[Fine structure of sieve-tube plastids of Aristolochia and Asarum (Aristolochiaceae)].

abstract：MAIN CONCLUSION:Our study demonstrated that symplasmic communication between Sedum acre seed compartments and the embryo proper is not uniform. The presence of plasmodesmata (PD) constitutes the structural basis for information exchange between cells, and symplasmic communication is involved in the regulation of cell d...
