Measuring external primary cell wall elasticity of seedling roots using atomic force microscopy
Summary: Stiffness plays a central action in plant cell extension. Here, we present a protocol to detect changes in stiffness on the external epidermal cell wall of living plant roots using atomic force microscopy (AFM). We provide generalized instructions for collecting force-distance curves and an...
