Live imaging is one of the most powerful methods to reveal the morphogenesis of plant organs. However, the highly three-dimensional structure of plant organs always poses technical challenges. For example, the basal region of leaf primordia is rarely observed because of the shape of leaf primordia and the sudden shift in geometry at the point where the leaf primordium connects to the hypocotyl. In this work, we developed a new live-imaging system that is suitable for observing the developmental process of the basal region of Arabidopsis leaf primordia at early stages. Using this system, we achieved continuous observation of the basal region of early Arabidopsis leaf primordia for more than 50 hours.
