Sieve elements caught in the act

Trends in Plant Science, 2002
Phloem is a puzzling plant tissue owing to the unique natural defence responses of the sieve elements to any kind of mechanical manipulation. Recent non-invasive studies have enabled real-time observation of events in intact sieve tubes, including mass transport, sieve-pore sealing and conformational changes of structural proteins.

CALLOSE SUBSTANCE IN SIEVE ELEMENTS

American Journal of Botany, 1964
The secondary phloem of 6 species of woody dicotyledons was examined for the occurrence of callose on the sieve plates of active sieve elements. Fluorescence and bright‐field staining methods were used to detect callose. Tissue from the 6 species was killed and fixed in each of 5 solutions.

PHLOEM UNLOADING: Sieve Element Unloading and Post-Sieve Element Transport

Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1997
▪ Abstract  The transport events from the sieve elements to the sites of utilization within the recipient sink cells contribute to phloem unloading. The phenomenon links sink metabolism and/or compartmentation with phloem transport to, and partitioning between, sinks.

Sieve–element characters

Nordic Journal of Botany, 1981
Of all the ultrastructural features recognized within sieve elements their specific plastids provide the most successful characters in seed plant systematics. Sieve–element plastids are classified into subtypes and forms according to their protein and starch contents. Presently 26 different forms grouped into six subtypes within the two basic types (S–

Sieve element pores in Nicotiana pith culture

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1970
Sieve elements were induced to form in cultured pith cylinders of Nicotiana tabacum L. (var. Wisconsin 38). Both xylem and phloem differentiate in isolated nodules at the periphery of the cylinders. The mature sieve elements closely resemble sieve elements in intact plants but are more irregular in shape and usually not highly elongated.

Lignified sieve elements in the wheat leaf

Planta, 1974
Sieve elements with thick, lignified walls are identified in the longitudinal bundles of the wheat leaf and appear to be functional. They are also present in several festucoid grasses but appear to be absent from the panicoid grasses examined.

Sieve Elements of Graft Unions

1990
In grafted plants the various relations between scion and stock are based on exchange of heterogeneous substances between the partners; many of them being organic compounds which are translocated in the symplast (see reviews by Brabec 1965 and Carr 1976).

Endoplasmic reticulum in the sieve element of Cucurbita

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1968
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in immature sieve elements of Cucurbita maxima Duchesne resembles that of other types of nucleate cells in morphology and distribution. In mature sieve elements the ER assumes two forms. One of these is represented by a network closely applied to the plasma membrane lining the cell wall.

Sieve element plastids in bamboo

Experientia, 1978
The fine structure of the sieve element plastids ofBambusa vulgaris andSchizostachyum lumampao revealed the typical monocotyledonous type (P-type) with the cuneate proteinaceous bodies and lattice-like crystalloids; in addition, characteristically formed vesicles and tubulae could be observed. The diagnostic value of these plastids is also discussed.
