The cellular mechanisms of laticifer growth are of particular interest in plant biology but are commonly neglected. Using transmission electron microscopy and immunocytochemical methods, we recorded cytological differentiation ...

Premise of research. In Apocynaceae, nonarticulated laticifers have been recorded in most species studied. Interpretation of the mode of development of laticifers, whether articulated or nonarticulated, is controversial, ...

Laticifers are highly specialized living plant cells which produce and contain latex. Occurrence of latex was used to establish morphological affinities (i) between Liabeae and other Asteracean tribes, (ii) among the Liabean ...

This study aimed to analyze the leaf anatomy of Manihot caerulescens, with emphasis on the ontogeny and secretion composition of the laticifers. Leaf samples were submitted the usual techniques in plant anatomy and ...

Neste estudo buscamos avaliar diferentes aspectos da diferenciação de laticíferos. O crescimento intrusivo (capacidade de crescer penetrando a lamela média de células adjacentes) e a ação indutora dos laticíferos (capacidade ...
