The comparative ultrastructural analysis of the anther loculus wall cells

o f the spring wheat var. Sonalika has been performed at the moment of

inoculation o f anthers into the media and after 12 h of the culture. A t the

start moment of the culture the state o f layers of the anther loculus wall is

following. The cells of tapetum and middle layer involve in the process of

degeneration. The formation of the fibrous thickenings has been mentioned

to begin in walls of the endothecium cells, but themselves o f the cells do not

degenerate. A fter 12 h of the culture the cells of all layers of the wall have

degenerated already, but the process of the degeneration has gone on

irregularly both in the different layers of the anther loculus wall and in the

cells of the same layer. Absolute majority o f tapetal cells has presented

only by sporopollenin membrane with orbicules, but it has been observed

that the cells of tapetum kept strongly dense cytoplasm. The all cells of

middle layer are lengthy and compact. The presence of two types degenerated

cells of endothecium has been noted. The cells of the first type contain a

great variety of plastids with strongly developed thylakoid system, but relative

volume of starch in plastids is not large; cytoplasm is electron-light. The

round nuclei lie on a periphery of the cells and have well formed nucleoli.

Autolysis has been observed in the cells. Among the such cells of

endothecium locally has been founded the cells of the second type. Their

large nuclei have been characterized by irregular form, the presence of nucleoli

and separate chromatin droplets. In plastids of these cells the starch grains

arc more than in cells of the first type.
