A Method for Preparing Spaceflight RNA<i>later</i>-Fixed <i>Arabidopsis thaliana</i> (Brassicaceae) Tissue for Scanning Electron Microscopy

Premise of the study: In spaceflight experiments, tissues for morphologic study are fixed in 3% glutaraldehyde, while tissues for molecular study are fixed in RNA<i>later</i>; thus, an experiment containing both study components requires multiple fixation strategies. The possibility of u...
