Outline of Final Research Achievements |
New techniques to kill male flowers of Cryptomeria japonica were tried to establish by the application of sorbitan trioleate which is a food additive and used for cosmetics. By the observation of TEM, it was clear that sorbitan trioleate induced necrosis type programmed cell death of male flower cells leading to the suppression of pollen formation. The cells treated with sorbitan trioleate seemed to shrink separated from cell wall and cell membrane was broken so that cytosol was leaked out to apoplast. The electrophoresis of DNA showed smear degradation. Sorbitan trioleate induces plant growth by suppression of male flowers and cones of Cryptomeria japonica, which can lead to establish a practical technique to decrease pollen dissemination without damaging the values of Japanese ceder timbers.
