Chemical probes + imaging can reveal spatiotemporal patterns of a wide range of physico-chemical features in plants, without the need for genetic access.
We reviewed what tools exist and how they can be used & engineered.
Chemistry meets plant cell biology!

The advent of spatial and quantitative biology has led to immense advances in understanding the complex inner workings of plants, down to the molecular scale. Functional imaging of live plants, which ...
Well well, Merci beaucoup @france-bioimaging.bsky.social for recognising 'The Puzzled Awakening'. A special thanks to @rdplab.bsky.social where it was imaged during my stay!
How do different clonal layers interact to make a leaf flat? How do they integrate genetic and mechanical cues to achieve this remarkable feat? That is precisely what we answered through our work! Special thanks to all contributors! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...
Thanks to @irbv.bsky.social , @rdplab.bsky.social , IISc, @globalbioimaging.bsky.social , @wellcometrust.bsky.social , @iubmb.bsky.social , @mitacs.bsky.social @embo.org for their incredible support and funding.
Well, well, this is absolutely mind-blowing.

New kid on the block!
So proud to share our latest publication @CellCellPress! Yue Rui reveals that the same enzyme that makes the wall, cellulose synthase complex (CESA), also tethers the plasma membrane to the wall during water-deficit stress, providing resilience. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
What is an edge? Why is this geometrical domain so crucial during plant morphogenesis? Read our review, co-written with Antoine Chevalier and @ckirchhelle.bsky.social to find out!
