Transformations of Plastids in white Pumpkin Fruits
Nikola Ljubešić
; Hrvatska
Abstract
The development of plastids in the subepidermis of fruits of Cucurbita pepo var. patisson starts with the stage of normal proplastids. In the process of fruit ripening the proplastids are transformed into fully-grown leucoplasts, which are similar in ultrastructure to the chromoplasts of the globular type. In the process of fruit decaying the leucoplasts are completely disintegrated. The problem of plastid terminology has been touched upon.
