Floral nectary structure, nectar presentation and morpho-anatomical analysis of male-fertile and male-sterile anthers in onion (Allium cepa, Amaryllidaceae)
Background and aims: The onion (Allium cepa var. cepa) is an allogamous species in which male-sterile lines have been developed. However, the structure of the flower and floral nectaries have only been briefly described. The objective of this study is to update the floral anatomy data, comparing...

| description |
Background and aims: The onion (Allium cepa var. cepa) is an allogamous species in
which male-sterile lines have been developed. However, the structure of the flower
and floral nectaries have only been briefly described. The objective of this study is
to update the floral anatomy data, comparing the gynoecium and androecium of
male-fertile and male-sterile lines, and to analyze the three-dimensional structure
of the floral nectary.
M&M: Conventional optical and scanning electron microscopy techniques were used.
Results: Fertile and sterile male flowers have the same structural organization. The
septal or gynopleural nectary is organized in three zones: 1) production area formed
by the glandular tissue arranged radially in the septa of the ovary, 2) discharge
zone: a small channel at the apex connects the nectariferous tissue with the pocket
formed between the ovary wall and the overlying ridge, and 3) presentation and
harvest zone, where the excreted nectar accumulates, formed between the widened
base of the inner staminal filaments opposite the ovary.
Conclusions: The only anatomical differences in the flowers sterile male lines are
the lack of pollen production and the absence of dehiscence, despite having a
normal stomium and anther wall. The floral nectaries of onion are a clear example
of secondary presentation of nectar. |

Introducción y objetivos: La cebolla (Allium cepa var. cepa) es una especie alógama, donde se han desarrollado líneas androestériles. La estructura floral y la de sus nectarios florales ha sido descrita de manera somera e incompleta. El objetivo del presente trabajo es actualizar los datos de la anatomía floral comparando líneas fértiles y androestériles y analizar la estructura tridimensional del nectario floral. M&M: Se utilizaron técnicas convencionales de microscopía óptica y electrónica de barrido. Resultados: Las flores fértiles y androestériles presentan la misma organización estructural. El nectario septal o ginopleural se organiza en tres zonas: 1) área productora formada por el tejido glandular dispuesto radialmente en los septos del ovario, 2) zona de descarga: un pequeño canal en el ápice conecta el tejido nectarífero con el bolsillo formado entre la pared del ovario y la cresta que los cubre, y 3) zona de presentación y cosecha, donde el néctar excretado se acumula, formada entre la base ensanchada de los filamentos estaminales internos y la base del ovario. Conclusiones: Las únicas diferencias anatómicas en las flores de las líneas androestériles y las fértiles radican en la falta de producción de granos de polen y la ausencia de dehiscencia, pese a presentar estomio y pared de anteras normales. Los nectarios florales de la cebolla son un claro ejemplo de presentación secundaria del néctar. 2024-09-27T15:12:36Z 2024-09-27T15:12:36Z 2023 Artículo González, Ana María, et al., 2023.
