【Abstract】 The outmost layers of cells of the Allium sativum root caps involve in programmed cell death in their development process .The cells in the central part of the root cap(Ⅰ)are characterized by high level of metabolic activity.The middle part cells (Ⅱ)between center and peripheral part are characterized by the appearance of mucilage and vacuolization. The outmost cells (Ⅲ) exhibit condensation and shrinkage of chromatin of nucleus. Sometimes nucleus breaks into small packets and autophagic vacuoles appear in cytoplasm. These characteristics are similar to classical characteristics in programmed cell death of animal cells. Nuclear lobing has been found in the process of programmed cell death of peripheral cells of the root cap, this nuclear lobing phenomenon has not been reported in that of animal cells.更多还原
