Natural rubber (cis-polyisoprene) obtained from Hevea brasiliensis is an essential industrial material because of its excellent properties (elasticity, cold resistance, abrasion resistance). And with mounting concern over the problems of global warming, natural rubber has been attracting much attention as a plant-derived carbon-neutral material. However, natural rubber biosynthesis has not been well understood. As the basic information to clear the biosynthesis, it is important to analyze the detail structure of laticiferous vessels, where natural rubber production and accumulation occur. In previous studies, laticiferous vessels have been stained with conventional lipid-staining reagent, Oil red O mainly. But it is difficult to analyze the detail structure using Oil red O and optical microscopes. In this study, we established a structural imaging system and succeeded in visualization of laticiferous vessels using spectral confocal laser scanning microscopy (SCLSM).
