Title
The time-lapse NIR autofluorescence and SYBR Green I images of vegetative nucleus during pollen tube elongation in wild-type Arabidopsis
Description
The DNA of wild-type Arabidopsis Col-0 was co-stained with SYBR Green I, a green fluorescent dye, to measure nuclear near-infrared (NIR) autofluorescence in pollen.
Time-lapse NIR autofluorescence imaging revealed the dynamics of the vegetative nucleus during pollen tube elongation in wild-type Arabidopsis.
The NIR autofluorescence promoted clearer imaging of the vegetative nucleus than DNA dyes during pollen tube elongation.
