A rapid preparation procedure for laser microdissection-mediated harvest of plant tissues for gene expression analysis.

Plants can be prepared quickly and easily for laser microdissection by direct sectioning of fresh tissue followed by dehydration on glass slides. We show that RNA isolated from material treated in this manner maintains high quality and enables the investigation of differential gene expression at a high morphological resolution.
