Description:
Watch a 28-minute webinar from the TPJ series exploring real-time tracking of root hair nucleus morphodynamics using microfluidic techniques. Delve into Marie-Edith Chabouté's research on nuclear mechanics and dynamics in plant development, focusing on Arabidopsis root hair analysis. Learn about the importance of the plant nucleo-cytoplasmic interphase, nuclear shape changes, and the role of the nucleus as a rheostat in plant development. Discover the use of coverslip-based microfluidic devices for studying nuclear dynamics during tip growth and root hair development. Gain insights into nuclear mechano-transduction in plant development and explore potential future applications of microfluidic approaches in this field.
