Abstract

There are technical difficulties in obtaining intact sections of cereal grains in which mature cells and their subcellular structures are well preserved. Here we describe a simple method for sectioning hard mature rice grains. It makes possible accurate localization of storage proteins in high-quality histological sections of rice endosperm.
