"It's much like doing a medical CT scan where you can see inside of the cell non-destructively, so you don't have to cut the cell open," says Carolyn Larabell, a cell biologist at UC San Francisco.

This can cause morphological adaptations, including changes in chlorophyll content and an increased leaf area, as well as a change in the metabolite profile of the plant. Lower UV exposure can also ...
