Cyclotide distribution in V. uliginosa and V. odorata leaves and petioles; the locations of cyclotides are revealed by red fluorescence. a and b V. odorata and V. uliginosa leaf cross sections, respectively. In both species, cyclotides are visible in the abaxial (lower; le) and adaxial (upper; ue) epidermis, and the mesophyll (me). c and d V. odorata and V. uliginosa petiole cross sections, respectively. In V. odorata (c), cyclotides are distributed evenly in the tissues, including the vascular bundle (vb). In V. uliginosa (d), cyclotides are distributed mainly in the epidermis, subepidermal region (ep), and vascular bundle (vb). Bar 100 µm (a and b) and 200 µm (c and d)
