Single cell analysis of wheat spike development

Single cell analysis of wheat spike development

This preprint wins the award for “most beautiful paper” this week. Xu, Lin et al. carried out an expression analysis of developing wheat spikes at three developmental stages, using both single-cell RNA sequencing and single-molecule fluorescence in situ hybridization (smFISH). The wheat spike is the inflorescence where the grain ultimately forms, so it is responsible for producing a large… Source
