aajb2-001 aajb2-001 Alternate intervessel pits showing pit borders and pit apertures in the wood of Petersianthus macrocarpus (Lecythidaceae). Lens et al. report that several wood features, including among others vessel pits, type of vessel perforation and the structure of the rays, are phylogenetically informative at the subfamily level.

Article Title: The Development of the Female Gametophyte of Epipactis (Orchidaceae) and its Inference for Reproductive Ecology
Abstract: The development of the female gametophytes of Epipactis atrorubens, E. helleborine, and E. palustris have been investigated using confocal scanning laser microscopy. These species have T-tetrads and eight-nucleate female gametophytes in common. The development of the female gametophyte is monosporic in accordance with the Polygonum type. Furthermore, the outer integument grows slowly and reaches to the middle of the inner integument, when the female gametophyte is mature. In the first two species, T-tetrads develop prior to anthesis, which may be correlated with autogamy. The development of the female gametophyte of E. palustris appears to be similar in plants from different localities.

Article Title: Experimental Plant Reproductive Biology and Reproductive Cell Manipulation in Higher Plants: Now and the Future
Abstract: Experimental plant reproductive biology has recently emerged as a new form of experimental embryology characterized by the direct experimental isolation and manipulation of reproductive cells and protoplasts. This work is fostered by current multidisciplinary trends in the sciences and serves to deepen our knowledge about the control of reproductive processes by providing novel in vitro material. The techniques of experimental plant reproductive biology also show great potential in providing new means for biotechnology, leading to significant refinements in plant breeding in higher plants that may eventually permit direct reproductive cell engineering. Recent achievements by our research group in experimental manipulation and biological studies of pollen protoplasts, generative cells, sperm cells, and embryo sacs are reviewed, and some ideas about future developments in this new area are presented.
