Histological techniques for studying starch synthase include:
Immunohistochemistry: This technique uses antibodies specific to starch synthase to localize and visualize the enzyme within plant tissues. In Situ Hybridization: This method detects the mRNA transcripts of starch synthase, revealing its expression patterns in different tissues. Electron Microscopy: High-resolution imaging techniques can be used to observe the ultrastructure of plastids and the distribution of starch granules.
