The growth and development of plants depends on diversified gene expression in different cell types. Compared to traditional bulk RNA sequencing, droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) allows for transcriptome profiling of individual cells within heterogeneous tissues. scRNA-seq provides a high-resolution atlas of cellular characterization and vastly improves our understandings of the interactions between individual cells and the microenvironment. However, the difficulty in protoplast isolation has limited the application of single-cell sequencing technology in plant research. Here we describe a high-efficiency protoplast isolation protocol for scRNA-seq.
