The results indicate that the lipoid and polysaccharide deposited in vacuoles of the chalazal cells have no obvious inhibitory actions to the grain filling. It appears that a direct relationship exists between the proceeding and end time of grain filling and the amount and appearing time of the lipoid, within lignin and suberin deposited on the inner wall of chalazal cells, and between grain filling rate and cultivars characteristic. The appearing time of the lipoid, within lignin and suberin deposited on the inner wall of chalazal cells in cultivar with large grain (Eenl and 95A-10) was later than that in cultivar with small grain (Huamai8), and the amount of deposits in the former was less than that in the latter. The late development of caryopsis and low rate of grain filling account for the wrinkled grain of 95A-10. The transport of assimilates in chalazal cells coexists with symplastic and apoplastic pathways, but symplastic pathway plays a major role after 24 days of flowering.展开更多
