Fig. 6From: A cell death assay in barley and wheat protoplasts for identification and validation of matching pathogen AVR effector and plant NLR immune receptorsVisual overview of steps for the protoplast isolation from wheat or barley leaves. Step 6: After vacuum infiltration, tube containing leaf tissue is incubated for 3 h at room temperature with 60 rpm shaking in the dark. Step 7: One volume of Wash Buffer is added to 1 volume of Protoplast Isolation Buffer containing leaf tissue. Step 8: Diluted buffer containing leaf tissue is filtered through a pre-moistened 100 µm—nylon cell strainer into a fresh tube. Step 9: Flow through containing protoplasts is centrifuged in round bottom tube at 100 x g for 3 min. Step 10: Supernatant is removed using a pipette. Step 11: Wash buffer is added to protoplast pelletBack to article page
