...... Cell sap was extracted from epidermal and mesophyll cells of leaves of 3- to 4-week-old plants. Single-cell (SC)-RT-PCR was used to amplify the actin transcripts using specific primer pairs for ACT1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8, 11 and 12. Only ACT2 and ACT8 were found in epidermal and in mesophyll cells. In individual trichomes, in addition to ACT2 and ACT8, ACT7 and ACT11 transcripts were detectable. By employing the already well-characterized actin system we demonstrate the ......
