Plant Science Research Weekly -- Macro Plant Projection Imaging (MAPPI): An open, scalable platform for whole-plant fluorescence real-time imaging (Science Advances) @labcosta.bsky.social (Summary by Indrani Kakati @indranik18.bsky.social) buff.ly/LxaRjzT
#PlantaePSRW
With MAPPI, we can design simple fluorescent experiments for long-term Ca²⁺ imaging — 16 hours in this video — tracking signals (if any) during growth or dynamic movements 📷

Plants "talk" internally — and now we can watch it happen.
MAPPI lets us track shoot-to-root Ca²⁺ signals in real time 🌱⚡

Using MAPPI for real-time whole-plant imaging, we reveal the earliest flooding response — a Ca²⁺ signal, expected, yet now directly visualised and strongest in young leaves...🔬📷

The MAPPI setup we @AndreaBassi78 @labcosta.bsky.social
published in @ScienceAdvances shows its versatility, enabling us to design amazing experiments that we never thought could be possible...

So, now guess what this video is showing❔❔
Hi Jim...we think that we are a community and we need to share our results...this is what I consider Advances...a technology that many people can use...
Yes, we have built it in my lab...if you read the paper you can have an idea about the many possibilities it offers...
Many thanks Stephan...

...we can infer that, in the presence of CPA, the ER behaves like anengine without fuel, incapable of sustaining the mechanism required to maintain the [Ca²⁺]cyt oscillations... doi.org/10.1111/nph....
Blue light decreases ER Ca²⁺ in stomatal guard cells, with refilling in the dark. Our new @newphyt.bsky.social study shows how ER Ca²⁺ shapes cytosolic Ca²⁺ dynamics
