ORNL scientists developed a method of detecting RNA inside plant cells using a technique that results in a visible fluorescent signal. The technology can help detect and track changes in RNA and gene expression in real time, providing a powerful tool for the development of hardier bioenergy and food crops and for detection of unwanted plant modifications, pathogens and pests.
