Abstract Background Abscission is the cell separation process by which plants are able to shed organs. It has a great impact on the yield of most crop plants. At the same time the process itself also constitutes an excellent model to study cell separation processes since it occurs in concrete areas known as abscission zones AZs which are composed of a specific cell type. However molecular approaches are generally hampered by the limited area and cell number constituting the AZ. Therefore detailed studies at the resolution of cell type are of great relevance in order to accurately describe the process and to identify potential candidate genes for biotechnological applications. .
