Abstract

A general schedule for staining meristematic, maturing, and mature plant tissues is described. Treatment with a dilute aqueous solution of Delafield's hematoxylin is followed with staining in 0.1% safranin in 60% alcohol. Destaining of safranin may be partly accomplished in alcohol and completed by counterstaining with dilute fast green FCF in a xylene and alcohol mixture. Various modifications and adaptations are briefly discussed.
