  bibo_abstract:
  - Super-resolution methods provide far better spatial resolution than the optical
    diffraction limit of about half the wavelength of light (∼200-300 nm). Nevertheless,
    they have yet to attain widespread use in plants, largely due to plants’ challenging
    optical properties. Expansion microscopy improves effective resolution by isotropically
    increasing the physical distances between sample structures while preserving relative
    spatial arrangements and clearing the sample. However, its application to plants
    has been hindered by the rigid, mechanically cohesive structure of plant tissues.
    Here, we report on whole-mount expansion microscopy of thale cress (Arabidopsis
    thaliana) root tissues (PlantEx), achieving a four-fold resolution increase over
    conventional microscopy. Our results highlight the microtubule cytoskeleton organization
    and interaction between molecularly defined cellular constituents. Combining PlantEx
    with stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy, we increase nanoscale resolution
    and visualize the complex organization of subcellular organelles from intact tissues
    by example of the densely packed COPI-coated vesicles associated with the Golgi
    apparatus and put these into a cellular structural context. Our results show that
    expansion microscopy can be applied to increase effective imaging resolution in
    Arabidopsis root specimens. @eng
