Using Foldscope to Monitor Superoxide Production and Cell Death During Pathogen Infection in Arabidopsis Under Different Nitrogen Regimes.Nitrogen nutrition plays a role in plant growth development and resistance against biotic and abiotic stress.  By using an avirulent Pseudomonas syringae and Arabidopsis differential N nutrition we show superoxide production in leaves using a paper microscope called Foldscope, which can be applied as a simple microscope to observe objects.  Taken together here we show that Foldscope is a cost-effective and powerful technique to visualize superoxide and cell death in plants during infection.
