Laser microdissection (LM) of giant cells induced by the root‐knot nematode Meloidogyne javanica on roots of tomato. (A, B) Longitudinal sections through the root showing early‐stage giant cells before dissection (A) and with cell contents removed after LM (B). (C, D) Longitudinal sections through the root of a control plant (C) showing region of cells close to the vasculature (D) captured as control cells to calibrate gene expression of giant cell transcripts. GC, giant cells.
