Ratiometric comparison of three fluorophores expressed from the same T-DNA. Exemplary CLSM image of epidermal cells from leaves of N. tabacum two days after infiltration with Agrobacterium tumefaciens containing pBiFCt-2in1-NN (ECFP/EGFP, above) and pBiFCt-2in1-NN (EGFP/ECFP, below). Scale bar, 30 M. Images were taken using an LSM510 microscope from Zeiss (Cambridge, UK) with standardized excitation intensities and photomultiplier gains and with the following excitation wavelength/emission bandwidth/dichroic filter settings: 458 nm/LP475/HFT458/543 (secondary dichroic 490) (CFP), 488 nm/BP505–530/HFT488/543 (GFP), and 543 nm/BP560–615/HFT488/543 (RFP). Bleed-through from CFP into the GFP channel was checked using separate controls with the same settings. Image from C. Grefen and M.R. Blatt (pg 311). Cover design by Genevieve McCarthy
