Morphogenesis of Capitate Glandular Hairs of Cannabis sativa (Cannabaceae)

Abstract: The glandular secretory system in Cannabis sativa L. (marihuana) consists of three types of capitate glandular hairs (termed bulbous, capitate-sessile, and capitate-stalked) distinguishable by their morphology, development, and physiology. These gland types occur together in greatest abundance and developmental complexity on the abaxial surface of bracts which ensheath the developing ovary. Bulbous and capitate-sessile glands are initiated on very young bract primordia and attain maturity during early stages o… Show more

“…This procedure was complicated by the fact that S. officinalis possesses five distinct types ofoil glands, including stalked capitate glands bearing a single terminal secretory cell, small sessile capitate glands containing one, two, or four secretory cells surmounting a basal and stem (stipe) cell, and large peltate glands containing eight secretory cells surmounting a basal and stem cell and entirely surrounded by an enlarged extracellular oil-filled cavity (35). Studies with related essential oil-producing species indicate that the sessile capitate glands with one, two, and four secretory cells are developmental stages in the formation of the large peltate glands (22)(23)(24)33). Light microscope and scanning electron microscope examination (Fig.…”

“…The release of secretion by cuticular rupture has been reported for several lipophilic glands, viz. Newcasrelia viscida (Dell & McComb 1975), Cannabis sativa (Hammond & Mahlberg 1977), hula viscosa (Werker & Fahn 1981), Thymus vulgaris (Bruni & Modenesi 1983) and Artemisia campesfris (Ascenstio & Pais 1987). The bulbous trichomes degenerate after rupture of the cuticle, as also found in Achillea trichomes (Stahl 1953).…”
