Fluorescent Staining and Quantification of Starch Granules in Chloroplasts of Live Plant Cells Using Fluorescein

Plants use CO2, water, and light energy to generate carbohydrates through photosynthesis. During daytime, these carbohydrates are polymerized, leading to the accumulation of starch granules in chloroplasts. The catabolites produced by the degradation of these chloroplast starch granules are used for...
