Histological studies of ground tissue involve preparing thin sections of plant material for microscopic examination. These sections are stained using specific dyes that highlight different cell types. For instance, toluidine blue can be used to differentiate between cell wall components, making it easier to identify parenchyma, collenchyma, and sclerenchyma cells. Advanced imaging techniques such as confocal microscopy and electron microscopy provide detailed views of cell structures and their functions.
