Applications of free-hand sections in cereal developing kernels. a Fluorescence microscope images of transverse sections of wheat developing kernels (cited from Yu et al. [13]). DAA, day after anthesis; En, endosperm; Pe, pericarp. Scale bar = 0.5 mm. b Vertical-section of rice developing kernels stained with iodine solution (cited from Yu et al. [11]). DAF, day after flowering. Scale bar = 1 mm. c Vertical-section of rice developing kernels stained with 1% triphenyltetrazolium chloride (cited from Yu et al. [11]). Scale bar = 1 mm. d Progressive PCD detection in rice developing endosperms stained with Evans Blue (cited from Wu et al. [25]). Scale bar = 0.5 mm. e Gus staining in wheat mature kernel (cited from van Herpen et al. [29]). The lower panel showing a magnification of the outermost cell layers of the upper panel. Scale bar = 0.5 mm for the whole section and 0.1 mm for region magnification
