Fine structure of the tapetum lucidum in the short-tailed stingray Dasyatis brevicaudata [PDF]
The tapetum lucidum of the short-tailed stingray (Dasatis brevicaudata) is located in the choroid of the superior fundus immediately external to the choriocapillaris.

Oleosins are alkaline proteins found on the surface of oil bodies in plants. They serve a structural role in stabilizing the triacylglycerols of the oil bodies together with the phos pholipid layer.

Some reflective properties of the tapetum lucidum of the cat's eye
1. Observation of the fresh, isolated tapetum of the cat with a low-power microscope showed it to be composed of multilayer reflectors (domains) each being less than 6 μm in diameter.

Role of the tapetum in pollen and spore dispersal
Group-specific functions linked to the dispersal of pollen and spores are reported in all the groups of land plants. Anthocerotopsida tapetal cells envelop developing meiocytes and spores; after exine formation their walls thicken, the cytoplasm starts ...

The anther tapetum helps control microspore release and essential components for pollen wall formation. TAPETAL DEVELOPMENT and FUNCTION1 (TDF1) is an essential R2R3 MYB tapetum transcription factor in Arabidopsis thaliana; however, little is known about

Pollen development is dependent on the tapetum, a sporophytic anther cell layer surrounding the microspores that functions in pollen wall formation but is also essential for meiosis-associated development.

The tapetum: Its form, function, and possible phylogeny inEmbryophyta
It appears that the tapetum is universally present in land plants, even though it is sometimes difficult to recognize, because it serves mostly as a tissue for meiocyte/spore nutrition.
