Intine
Definition:
(n.) A transparent, extensible membrane of extreme tenuity, which forms the innermost coating of grains of pollen.
Example Sentences:
(1) The central body is therefore surrounded by three layers, the intine, the exine, and the capsule, all containing acid mucopolysaccharide.
(2) These quantitative studies confirm the gametophytic and sporophytic origins of the intine and exine proteins.
(3) A particularly prominent zone, triangular in profile, is left where the wall joins with the intine.
(4) The wall residues persist throughout the maturation phase of the pollen and are considered to be either callose resulting from incomplete digestion of the initial wall, or some other polysaccharide material which is unevenly laid down along the wall and concentrated at the junction with the intine.
(5) Vesicles that appear to originate from the contracting cell membrane of the central body may account for the lipid content of the intine.
