Fig. 3

Lipid droplets within the leaf tissue of energecane. The upper panel showcases fluorescence-stained lipid droplets within guard cells (GCL) using BODIPY 493/503, along with the autofluorescence emanating from chloroplasts in the wild-type (WT) strain. The lower panel displays both the lipid droplets within guard cells and those in regular cells (LD), alongside the chloroplast autofluorescence found in leaf tissue of the transgenic line L13. The lipid droplets within guard cells are indicated by white arrows, while a selection of typical lipid droplets are indicated by blue arrows. Both the lipid droplets found within the guard cells (GCL) and those present outside of the guard cells (LD) are rendered in shades of green, while autofluorescence originating from chlorophyll is is seen in red. Scale bar = 50 μm
