Preservation and characterization by confocal microscopy of fern spores

Preservation and characterization by confocal microscopy of fern spores

This work reports the possibilities of using lyophilisation and direct immersion in liquid nitrogen for long-term preservation of fern spores. In addition, modern techniques such as confocal image microscopy and fluorescence emission spectrum were tested to characterize spores of ferns.
