Nuclear Staining and in Situ Detection of DNA Fragmentation in Wild-Type and Transgenic Tobacco BY-2 Cells at Different Stages of Subculture.

(A) Three-day-old wild-type, 35S::GUS, 35S::NgTRF1, and 35S::anti-NgTRF1 transgenic cells in the 35th round of batch subculture were stained with DAPI (panel a) and assayed with the TUNEL technique (panel b) as described in Methods to detect nuclei and fragmented nuclear DNA, respectively. Panel c shows a magnified view of the boxed portion in panels a and b. Bars = 25 μm in panels a and b; bars = 100 μm in panel c.

(B) Twelve-day-old wild-type, 35S::GUS, 35S::NgTRF1, and 35S::anti-NgTRF1 transgenic cells in the 35th round of batch subculture were stained with DAPI (panel a) and assayed with the TUNEL technique (panel b). Panel c shows a magnified view of the boxed portion in panels a and b. Bars = 25 μm in panels a and b; bars = 100 μm in panel c.
