Resumen
Introducción: a pesar de que T. cacao es una especie importante a nivel mundial por la producción de cacao, es poco lo que se conoce sobre la micromorfología y estructura de las anteras y los granos de polen. Objetivos: Describir y analizar la estructura y micromorfología de las anteras y los granos de polen de 10 genotipos élite de esta importante especie tropical. Métodos: Se tomaron más de 30 anteras de flores en antesis de los 10 genotipos élite de T. cacao del banco de germoplasma ex situ del Centro de Investigaciones Suiza-Agrosavia (Rionegro, Santander-Colombia). El material se procesó de acuerdo con los protocolos estándar para embeber y seccionar en parafina. Las secciones obtenidas (3 μm) se tiñeron con azul de Safranina-Alcian para discriminar estructuras con paredes primarias y secundarias y polifenoles totales. Además, se usó la técnica PAS-Amidoblack para diferenciar entre polisacáridos estructurales y de reserva, así como proteínas. Para la determinación de esporopolenina y polifenoles se usó la tinción azul de toluidina y finalmente para descripciones adicionales se aplicó la tinción azul alcián-PAS-hematoxilina. Las observaciones se realizaron mediante microscopio fotónico y microscopio de epifluorescencia. Para la observación con microscopía electrónica de barrido (MEB), las anteras con los granos de polen se fijaron y deshidrataron en 2.2 dimetoxipropano, luego se desecaron hasta un punto crítico y finalmente se recubrieron con oro. Resultados: las anteras son bitecas y están sostenidas por un largo filamento formado por un estrato epidérmico, tejido parenquimatoso y un haz vascular. La dehiscencia ocurre longitudinalmente a través del estomio. La pared de la antera madura está formada por una capa epidérmica monoestratificada, una capa de células endoteliales con engrosamientos fibrilares lignificados y se pueden apreciar restos celulares del tapete y abundantes orbículas recubriendo la cavidad de los microesporangios. Los tejidos epidérmicos y parenquimatosos de las anteras almacenan polifenoles. Las orbículas son generalmente esféricas, psiladas y exhiben las mismas reacciones de tinción y fluorescencia que la exina de los granos de polen. Los granos de polen son mónades, isopolares, pequeños (16-19 µm) con amb circular, esferoidales, tricolpados con colpos medianos o cortos (5-10 µm) con membrana ornamentada, semitectatos, reticulados, heterobrochados, las paredes del retículo ornamentadas o no, con microgránulos de diferente tamaño o escabrados. Los análisis estadísticos mostraron que existen diferencias significativas en el tamaño de los granos de polen (P ˂ 0.05). Se observa que los granos de polen más pequeños son los del genotipo TCS 19 (16.890 µm) y se diferencian del resto de genotipos, y entre estos no se observan diferencias significativas. Solo dos genotipos (SCC 19 y SCA 6) presentaron polenkit y solo uno tiene paredes perforadas (SCA 6). Conclusiones: la estructura y micromorfología de las anteras de T. cacao son similares a las descritas para otras Malvaceae. Así mismo, los granos de polen mostraron variaciones de tamaño, ornamentación de las paredes y del lumen del retículo y presencia de polenkit. Sin embargo, no se observó relación entre las variaciones de los caracteres micromorfológicos analizados en los granos de polen y los modelos de compatibilidad polínica reportados para estos genotipos.
