Abstract

In this work, we developed a small-molecule fluorescent probe (termed as LJTP3) for the specific detection of Hg²⁺ with high sensitivity in living plant tissues. LJTP3 can not only effectively indicate the spatiotemporal distribution of Hg²⁺ in the plant subcellular level, but also enable to realize 3D imaging of Hg²⁺ in plant roots.
