After our first demonstration of the early alteration of the chloroplast morphology with the use of both Confocal Microscopy and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) and the discussion of the biological mechanisms, we develop here the optical part of this work and underline the merits of full field OCT for plant studies.
