Homology of form in plant and animal Golgi apparatus

摘要

AbstractIn both negatively stained and sectioned preparations, Golgi apparatus of mouse spleen, liver and kidney consist of dictyosomes having cisternae with tubular peripheries. The extent of the tubular portion varies among tissues and among cisternae of a given dictyosome. Animal dictyosomes closely resemble those from plants in both form and sedimentation characteristics. In these respects, plant and animal Golgi apparatus are homologous structures.
