Vital Autofluorescence: Application to the Study of Plant Living Cells
Figure 2
Fluorescent larva of aphis interacts with cellular complex of leaf gland of mint Mentha piperita. (a) Left: the fluorescence spectra of secretory cells measured by microspectrofluorimeter MSF-1. Excitation: 360–380 nm. Unbroken line—secretory cells; broken line nonsecretory cells. The position of optical probe (OP) is shown. Right: the common view of gland under luminescence microscope “Carl Zeiss CD-28”. ((b)–(e)) Images under luminescence microscope Leica DM 6000. (b) The common view of aphis larva out of the gland, ((c)–(e)) views of larva on the mint gland. Excitation by light 360–410 nm (b), 420–450 nm (c), 480 nm (d), and 560 nm (e).
