Chlorophyll Fluorescence: A Novel Method to Screen for Herbicide Resistance

The susceptibility to Terbacil of six randomly selected strawberry cultivars (‘Aromas’, ‘Chambly’, ‘Harmonie’, ‘Kent’, ‘La Clé des Champs’ and ‘Seascape’) was analysed using chlorophyll florescence (CF) in comparison with visual observation, in an attempt to develop a method for use in a breeding programme to select herbicide-resistant strawberry lines. Terbacil was applied at one of five rates...

Fluorescence and Fluorescence Applications

Since the introduction of the polymerase chain reaction in the early 1980s perhaps no single technology has had a greater impact on molecular biology than fluorescence. Fluorescence-labeled oligonucleotides and dideoxynucleotide DNA sequencing terminators have opened a seemingly limitless range of applications in PCR, DNA sequencing, microarrays, and in situ hybridization and have done so with ...

Optically Modulated Fluorescence Bioimaging: Visualizing Obscured Fluorophores in High Background

Fluorescence microscopy and detection have become indispensible for understanding organization and dynamics in biological systems. Novel fluorophores with improved brightness, photostability, and biocompatibility continue to fuel further advances but often rely on having minimal background. The visualization of interactions in very high biological background, especially for proteins or bound co...
