Compared with ATR-FTIR method, we found that micro-FTIR can obtain more information of cellulose inside of the developing cotton fibers, especially in high wavenumber of 2800-3000 cm-1 region. Combined with curve fitting method, a new IR crystallinity index (CI) method named wax crystallinity index (WCI) was introduced to evaluate the cellulose crystallinity in the development of cotton fibers based on the peak and area ratios of 2900 cm-1/2850 cm-1 and 2900 cm-1/2920 cm-1. The obtained WCI values demonstrated an excellent coefficient of determination with X-ray diffraction (XRD) CI method with the value up to 0.99. This study suggested that micro-FTIR was an effective technique to qualitatively analyze the crystallinity in developing cotton fibers combined with curve fitting method.Besides structural information, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is crucial to reveal the presence and gradients of metabolites in organs constituted of several tissues. In plant science, such knowledge is key to better understand fruit development and metabolism. Routine methods based on fixation for cytological studies or dissection for metabolite measurements induce biases and plant sample destruction. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging (MSRI) leads to one NMR spectrum per pixel while chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) MRI allows mapping metabolites having exchangeable protons. As both methods present different advantages and drawbacks, we compared them to map metabolites in ripe tomato fruits. We demonstrated that MRSI was difficult to interpret due to large spatial chemical shift variations while CEST MRI produced promising image mapping of the main carbohydrates and amino acids. It showed that glucose/fructose was mostly located in the locular tissue, whereas glutamate/gluta
