Fig. 7

Gallery of tomographic reconstructions of Golgi stack cisternae of control and stimulated Venus flytrap gland cells. The individual cisternae (C1–C7) are viewed from the cis-side of the stacks. The C1 cis-cisternae exhibit the greatest variability in size and architecture. Control (non-stimulated) Golgi cisternae typically possess many peripheral fenestrae, whereas the BSA-stimulated Golgi possess few. BSA stimulation also caused a reduction in the number of cisternae (days 4, 6) and an increase in size of the bulbous cisternal margins that give rise to budding secretory-type TGN vesicles.
