Plasmodesmata (singular: plasmodesma) are microscopic channels which traverse the cell walls of plant cells〔Oparka, K. J. (2005) ''Plasmodesmata.'' Blackwell Pub Professional. ISBN 1-4051-2554-3 ISBN 978-1-4051-2554-3〕〔(Plasmodesmata (www.dictionary.com) )〕 and some algal cells, enabling transport and communication between them. Plasmodesmata evolved independently in several lineages,〔http://public.wsu.edu/~lange-m/Documnets/Teaching2011/Popper2011.pdf〕 and species that have these structures include members of the Charophyceae, Charales, Coleochaetales and Phaeophyceae (which are all algae), as well as all embryophytes, better known as land plants.〔Graham, LE; Cook, ME; Busse, JS (2000), Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences 97, 4535-4540.〕 Unlike animal cells, every plant cell is surrounded by a polysaccharide cell wall. Neighbouring plant cells are therefore separated by a pair of cell walls and the intervening middle lamella, forming an extracellular domain known as the apoplast. Although cell walls are permeable to small soluble proteins and other solutes, plasmodesmata enable direct, regulated, symplastic intercellular transport of substances between cells. There are two forms of plasmodesmata: primary plasmodesmata, which are formed during cell division, and secondary plasmodesmata, which can form between mature cells.〔http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?artid=1692983 The shoot apical meristem: the dynamics of a stable structure. Jan Traas and Teva Vernoux : Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci. 2002 June 29; 357(1422): 737–747. (page 744)〕 Similar structures, called gap junctions and membrane nanotubes, interconnect animal cells and stromules form between plastids in plant cells. ==Formation== Primary plasmodesmata are formed when portions of the endoplasmic reticulum are trapped across the middle lamella as new cell wall is laid down between two newly divided plant cells and these eventually become the cytoplasmic connections between cells. Here the wall is not thickened further, and depressions or thin areas known as pits are formed in the walls. Pits normally pair up between adjacent cells. Plasmodesmata can also be inserted into existing cell walls between non-dividing cells (secondary plasmodesmata) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Plasmodesma」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
