A single-cell blueprint for cellular diversity in the Green Lineage: Current Biology www.cell.com/current-biol...
PCA Members are excited to share our new paper, which outlines a roadmap for tracing the origins & diversification of cell types across green plants using single-cell technologies.
From algae to angiosperms, we're entering a new era of comparative cell biology.

In case you missed it, the second Plant Imaging Workshop organized by @plantcellatlas.bsky.social is now available on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rytH...
In this session, you will learn how to get started with MorphoGraphX to do 2D and 3D segmentation.

Interested in 3D biological image analysis with #MorphoGraphX?
We created a beginner-friendly online workshop with step-by-step YouTube tutorial and accompanying training datasets: zenodo.org/records/1982...
The image was captured on an Olympus/Evident Confocal FV3000 with HyD detectors using a 60x/1.2W objective. A small section of the live leaf was mounted in water. The final image is a cropped region of a larger 3-by-3-stitched Z-stack image that was deconvolved.
These epidermal cells of tobacco (Nicotiana benthamiana) leaf are expressing cytosolic GFP. The brightest region is the nucleus, which is surrounded by a large central vacuole. The cytosol is restricted to the cell periphery. Transvacuolar strands connect the nucleus with other parts of the cell.
The fall (black to red to orange to yellow to white) look-up table has been applied. There is a significant variability in expression levels between cells, so some are much dimmer. Due to the leaf's uneven surface, some cells appear to be in different layers.
The image was captured on a Leica THUNDER Imager Model Organism dissecting scope (M205FCA).

This is a section of juvenile moss (Physcomitrium patens) tissue, called protonemata. The apical cells expand by tip-growth, while subapical cells sometimes divide to make lateral filaments.
Cytosolic GFP is in green, and chlorophyll autofluorescence is in magenta.
