The Symbiotic Relationship between Plants and Their Environment

Understanding Biological Transformation of Root Nodules Giving Birth to Bacteria and Yeast on the Health and Condition of the Whole Plant

The root network of a plant provides access to all of the water and nutrients that are crucial components for all plant growth. Exploring the whole root network as well as understanding the influence of its growing environment is important for optimizing plant health and yield. Investigating the symbiotic relationship between plants and its environment in root nodules requires knowledge of root nodule and biological transformation due to soil enviornment and a combination of both fluorescence and high-resolution structural assessment is vital to understand this in detail.​

Correlative array tomography enables the overlay of both fluorescence and structural data to enable visualization of root nodule and bacteria distribution.
