The spatial organization of cells plays a vital role in various biological processes, such as plant development and cell differentiation, plant-pathogen interactions and abiotic stress response. Spatial transcriptomics represents a cutting-edge methodology for profiling gene expression within preserved tissue sections, maintaining the native spatial context of cells and their surrounding microenvironments. In contrast to single-cell RNA-seq, spatial transcriptome sequencing preserves and records the original spatial location of cells, providing information on the “spatial location of organization” of gene expression and revealing the spatial heterogenity of cells.
However, the high-quality and interpretable data of spatial transcriptomics sequencing for plant tissues has been challenging due to issues related to tissue preparation. Leveraging extensive experience from over 10,000 samples, BMKGENE has produced an instructional video titled “Spatial Transcriptomics Sample Preparation Guidance” to assist researchers.
In this video, we will guide you through a standardized workflow to help maintain sample integrity, detailing key steps such as Experimental Materials Preparation, Sample Collection and Trimming, Tissue OCT Embedding, and Sealed Storage & Transportation.
