In theory, any plant tissue providing intact nuclei in sufficient quantity is suitable for nuclear DNA content estimation using flow cytometry (FCM). While this certainly opens a wide variety of possible applications of FCM, especially when compared to classical karyological techniques restricted to tissues with active cell division, tissue selection and quality may directly affect the precision (and sometimes even reliability) of FCM measurements. It is usually convenient to first consider the goals of the study to either aim for the highest possible accuracy of estimates (e.g., for inferring genome size, detecting homoploid intraspecific genome size variation, aneuploidy, among others), or to decide that histograms of reasonable resolution provide sufficient information (e.g., ploidy level screening within a single model species). Here, a set of best practices guidelines for selecting the optimal plant tissue for FCM analysis, sampling of material, and material preservation and storage are provided. In addition, factors potentially compromising the quality of FCM estimates of nuclear DNA content and data interpretation are discussed.
