Single-plant omics provides transcriptional insights into the transition from the vegetative to reproductive phases
Plant Science Research WeeklyPlants undergo a series of physiological processes when transitioning from the juvenile to the vegetative phase, and then vegetative to the reproductive phase. RNA-Seq offers substantial potential for uncovering the transcriptional landscape underlying these developmental transitions. However, developmental…
New kid on the plant block: Single-cell proteomics
Plant Science Research WeeklyWhile single-cell omics technologies, particularly transcriptomics, are already becoming widely adopted in plant science, quantifying proteins at single cell resolution is less established. Fortunately, important technological strides have been made that improve sample preparation, separation techniques,…
