Looking at stem photosynthesis with FLIM

It all started at the Molecular and Biophysical Bases of Photosynthesis Conference held in Venice in May 2022. Sara Natale, then a PhD researcher…

Figure: Fluorescence lifetime microviscosity maps of Arabidopsis roots showing the vacuoles (sulfo-BDP, A and B), cytosol (PEG-BDP, C and D; note that the dye penetrates poorly in the meristem region), plasma membranes (N+-BDP, E and F), and cell walls (CWP-BDP, G and H), in all images. (Scale bar: 100 μm.) Red boxes in A, C, E, and G indicate close-ups shown in the B, D, F, and H, respectively. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/legalcode
