High-resolution microscopy opens the door for detailed single-cell studies with fluorescent reporter dyes and proteins. We used a confocal spinning disc microscope to monitor fluorescent dyes and the fluorescent protein Venus in tobacco andArabidopsisguard cells. Multi-barreled microelectrodes were used to inject dyes and apply voltage pulses, which provoke transient rises in the cytosolic Ca2+level. Voltage pulses also caused changes in the distribution of Lucifer Yellow and Venus, which pointed to a reversible increase of guard cell cytosolic volume. The dynamic cytosolic volume changes turned out to be provoked by current injection of ions. A reduction of the clamp current, by blocking K+uptake channels with Cs+, strongly suppressed the cytosolic volume changes. Cs+not only inhibited the expansion of the cytosol, but also inhibited hyperpolarization-induced elevations of the cytosolic Ca2+concentration. A complete loss of voltage-induced Ca2+signals occurred when Ca2+-permeable plasma membrane channels were simultaneously blocked with La3+. This shows that two mechanisms cause hyperpolarization-induced elevation of the cytosolic Ca2+-concentration: (i) activation of voltage-dependent Ca2+-permeable channels, (ii) osmotically induced expansion of the cytosol, which leads to a release of Ca2+from intracellular stores.
