Despite the biological importance of the cytoskeletal dynamics, quantitative analyses remain laborious endeavors that only a handful of research teams regularly conduct. With this protocol, we provide a standardized step-by-step guide to analyze the dynamics of microtubules. We provide example data and code for post-processing in Fiji that enables researchers to modify and adapt the routine to their needs.

It has all of the biological traits required for a model system, including small stature, short life cycle, small genome, simple growth requirements, and a close relationship to major crop plants (cereals). In addition, numerous resources have been developed for working with this species, including genome sequences for many lines, sequenced mutant collections, and a large, freely available germplasm collection. Fortunately, among grasses <i>B. distachyon</i> is one of the most easily transformed species, an absolute necessity for a model system. <i>Agrobacterium</i>-mediated transformation is the preferred method to transform plants because it usually results in simple insertions of target DNA. In this article, we describe a method for <i>Agrobacterium</i>-mediated transformation of the inbred <i>B. distachyon</i> lines Bd21 and Bd21-3. Embryogenic callus induced from immature embryos is co-cultivated with <i>Agrobacterium tumefaciens</i> strain AGL1 or <i>Agrobacterium rhizogenes</i> strain 18r12v. Hygromycin and paromomycin are used as selective agents, with comparable transformation efficiencies (defined as the percentage of co-cultivated callus that produce transgenic plants) of 40% to 70%. It takes 20 to 30 weeks to obtain T<sub>1</sub> seeds starting from the initial step of dissecting out immature embryos.

These features facilitate almost background-free characterization of putative plant membrane transporters.

They protect against UV radiation, scavenge reactive oxygen species, are involved in plant defense responses, and are associated with plant-microorganism interactions.

Flavonoids encompass &gt;10,000 structures where the types and amounts depend on the plant species, developmental stage, organ, and growth conditions. The diversity of flavonoid structures represents a significant challenge in the analysis of plant flavonoids. Many analytical techniques have been developed to detect and quantify flavonoids, and the most productive of these techniques use liquid chromatography (LC) coupled to mass spectrometry (MS) to analyze flavonoids due to the excellent combination of selectivity and sensitivity of MS. In addition, mass spectral libraries have been constructed to further aid flavonoid identification.
