{Abstract}: Plants must adapt to environmental constraints. For this, they are able to perceive several types of stress in isolation or in combination manner. At the cellular level, after the perception of stress, cell signaling is set up to allow the establishment of the specific response. The calcium ion is known to be one of the ubiquitous second messengers which is involved in most of the stresses perceived by the plant. Changes of free cytosolic calcium but also in other cellular compartments are able to activate or inactivate several mechanisms involved in the cell to cope with the changes of environmental conditions. Several calcium reporters have been intensively used to visualize calcium signals in different conditions. In this chapter, we will present only genetically encoded fluorescent reporters for calcium imaging in living plant tissues to measure variations in calcium at several scales. The FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) YC3.60 and the intensiometric GCamP3 sensors will be used in this method chapter. The image analyses will be also detailed for fluorescence quantification of calcium variation.
