TL;DR

An optimized protocol for applying the Xenium in situ sequencing platform to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections of plant tissues, including Medicago truncatula roots and nodules, providing a reproducible and scalable method for high-resolution spatial transcriptomics in plant tissues, establishing a robust foundation for adaptation to other plant species and developmental systems.

Spatial Transcriptomics in Plants: From Cellular Maps to Mechanistic Insight.

This review synthesizes recent progress across diverse plant species and tissues, showing that gene expression is not only cell-type specific but also tightly organized by position within organs and developmental niches, establishing spatial gene expression as a fundamental organizing principle of plant development and...

Multi-organ single-cell transcriptomic atlas identifies QrIAA14 as a candidate negative regulator of adventitious root development in Quercus robur

Plant organ development involves coordinated cell fate transitions across multiple tissues, yet the cellular programs underlying organ-specific differentiation in woody plants remain poorly understood, particularly the mechanisms limiting efficient root development during vegetative propagation of oak species. Here, we...

DipTRANS: an improved method for in planta transformation and genome engineering in Nicotiana benthamiana.

Plant transformation remains constrained by labor-intensive tissue culture. Our previous work showed that direct delivery of developmental regulators (DRs) can induce de novo meristems on plants, offering a promising transformation approach. In this resource article, we introduced DipTRANS (Direct in planta Transformat...
