Abstract:

Microfluidic technology, a rapidly advancing field, is poised to revolutionize plant research. Recent technological progress, particularly the integration of microfluidic technology with other cutting-edge technologies, has expanded the horizons of plant research. This integration has not only opened up new avenues but also led to significant breakthroughs in plant science. These developments are anticipated to have far-reaching implications for agriculture, ecology, and various other disciplines. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the developmental process of microfluidic chips, including the materials and methodologies employed in the production. We also present an overview of the various types of microfluidic chips used in plant research and their recent applications in the examination of plant cells, roots, pollen tubes, and interactions between roots and the external environment. Lastly, we discusse the potential future applications of microfluidic chips in plant research, emphasizing the profound impact of this technology on agriculture, ecology, and related fields.
