Rapid and Inexpensive Method of Loading Fluorescent Dye into Pollen Tubes and Root Hairs.
The most direct technique for studying calcium, which is an essential element for pollen tube growth, is Ca2+ imaging. Because membranes are relatively impermeable, the loading of fluorescent Ca2+ probes into plant cells is a challenging task. Thus, we have developed a new method of loading fluo-4 a...
