An RNA in situ hybridization protocol optimized for monocot tissue

RNA in situ hybridization can be time-consuming and difficult to troubleshoot. Here, we provide an optimized protocol for maize leaf tissue, though it can be applied to other plant tissues such as shoot apical meristems, embryos, and floral organs. We generate three >100 bp unique antisense probes for each gene of interest and hybridize them to tissue sections.
