Molecular Cartography of candidate leaf vein patterning regulators in shoot apices of maize

Molecular Cartography data generated using the platform proprietary of Resolve BioSciences GmbH. This dataset constitute the supporting information of the following manuscripts: "The WIP6 transcription factor TOO MANY LATERALS specifies vein type in C4 and C3 grass leaves" (Vlad et al. https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.12.20.572592), "Spatial transcriptomics reveals distinct lineage identities for major and minor vein initiation during maize leaf development" (Perico et al. https://doi.org/10.1101/2024.02.05.578898).

The dataset is constituted of six samples and is structured as follows:

1) Images.zip: contains Calcofluor White and DAPI .tiff images used for cell segmentation.

2) Cell outlines.zip: contains the zip file of all segmented cells (ROIs) in all analysed samples. 

3) Raw data.zip: contains all raw data (in .txt format) of the spatial transcriptomics fluorescent signal.

Files that refer to the same samples are labelled the same across all folders. The sample names are: E1B2, E1D2, S1A1, S1A2, S1B1, S1B2.
