Extracted Explainers

What the tool is doing

This source describes fluorescent-protein-based genetically encoded biosensors that report redox-related physiological parameters in live plant systems. They are presented as tools for accessing retrograde redox signalling in cells, tissues, and whole plants.

Source 1DOI PubMed

Resources required

Use requires genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors and fluorescence-monitoring devices matched to the needed spatial or temporal resolution. The abstract also notes use in combination with genetic and pharmacological approaches.

Source 1DOI PubMed

What problem it solves

They help measure amplitudes and temporal and spatial dynamics of redox-related signals that are otherwise difficult to decipher in living plants.

Source 1DOI PubMed

Alternatives

The abstract contrasts biosensors with complementary genetic and pharmacological approaches rather than naming alternative sensor classes.
