Improved techniques for measurement of nanolitre volumes of phloem exudate from aphid stylectomy
BACKGROUND: When conducting aphid stylectomy, measuring accurate rates of phloem exudation is difficult because the volumes collected are in the nanolitre (nl) range. In a new method, exudate volume was calculated from optical measurement of droplet diameter as it forms on the tip of a severed aphid...
