The invention discloses a 3D
fluorescence in-situ hybridization method for a poplar
root tip based on a frozen section, belonging to the field of
molecular cytogenetics. The method comprises the following steps: acquiring a poplar
root tip, fixing the poplar
root tip with a Carnoy's fixative, then performing washing with water, embedding the poplar root tip with an
embedding agent, carrying out freezing, conducting
slicing, adhering an obtained section onto a
glass slide, carrying out FISH steps such as section baking, denaturation, hybridization,
antibody detection and the like, and finally carrying out observing under a
laser confocal microscope and capturing a 3D image. The method provided by the invention has the advantages that the complete tissue structure of the root tip can be obtained and a FISH
signal is clear. Compared with a 2D FISH result obtained by a traditional section preparation method, the method of the invention has the advantages that the method can visually display real space occupation of chromosomes in cells at a three-dimensional level and accurately locate the space distribution of target sequences in the cells at the three-dimensional level, is applicableto the fields of
chromosome space occupation and
gene expression of poplars, analysis of Hi-C sequencing results and the like, and has wide application prospects.
