Structure and physiology of Cycad coralloid roots
Giornale Botanico Italiano (Florence, Italy: 1962), 1993Abstract The gonidial zone organization of coralloid roots of Cycas revoluta is reported together with the taxonomy of cyanobiont, the physiology of the association and the significance of nitrogen fixation. Recent data on gonidial zone composition obtained by microelectrodes and immunogold labeling are referred in order to determine the mechanisms of ...

ON THE PHYCOBIONTS OF THE CYCAD CORALLOID ROOTS [PDF]
SummaryThe structure, ultrastructure and the developmental cycle of the phycobionts living in the coralloid roots of various cycads growing in different Italian Botanical Gardens were studied. The phycobionts were examined in the various zones of the coralloids from the top towards the base. All the phycobionts observed have the characteristics typical

Coralloid root regeneration on Macrozamia megagametophites
Giornale botanico italiano, 1980Abstract Megagametophytes of Macrozamia communis were incubated in White's Basal Medium and in White's Basal Medium modified with 2,4-D and kinetin. On the medium enriched with growth substances, regeneration of coralloid roots was induced. These are morphologically identical to sporophytic coralloid roots, without any endosymbiont and displaying ...

Regeneration of coralloid roots on cycad megagametophytes
Plant Science Letters, 1980Abstract Megagametophytes of Cycas revoluta Thunb. incubated in White's Basal Medium regenerated coralloid roots only in the presence of 2,4-D and kinetin. No microorganism was detected in the cultures. These results suggest that coralloid roots are an inherent feature of the cycad root system and that their formation is not induced by any ...

Characterization of a symbiotic, heterocystous, N2-fixing cyanobacterium fromCycas coralloid roots
World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 1992A symbiotic, heterocystous, N2-fixing blue-green alga, isolated from the coralloid roots of a xerophytic plant,Cycas revoluta, grew best in liquid medium supplemented with 4 mM NO 3 (-) . Morphologically, the isolated alga was identical to that of the natural endophyte but the cell size had decreased markedly. The alga was heterotrophic.

Akinete ultrastructure of Nostoc species isolated from cycad coralloid roots
Canadian Journal of Botany, 1980Nostoc strains isolated from different cycad coralloid roots were grown in culture until sporulation to study the structure and ultrastructure of akinetes. These cells have cell walls enclosed by two different envelopes produced by the vegetative cells during akinete differentiation, and cytoplasm containing thylakoids, cyanophycin granules ...

Thirty-three species of Encephalartos, which include all the known species indigenous to the Republic of South Africa, together with Stangeria eriopus, were found to form coralloid roots. In all cases, specimens were found in which the coralloid roots were infected with Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) and these roots in all cases reduced acetylene to ...

Antiviral activity of coralloid root ofCycas revoluta extract against some viruses of tomato plant
Experientia, 1984Crude coralloid root extract ofCycas revoluta showed significant antiviral activity against viruses of the tomato plant (PVX, PVY, TMV, TAV and TRSV) when applied 24 h before virus inoculation, or when mixed with different virus inocula before virus inocultion, in hypersensitive and systemic hosts.

Coralloid Root Systems in Plants showing Lime-induced Chlorosis
Nature, 1967LIME-INDUCED chlorosis is a well known nutritional disorder of species growing on calcareous soils. The overt symptoms are the development of interveinal chloroses, which are commonly more severe in young leaves. Only in severe cases are the veins themselves chlorotic.
