Researchers at the MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences built a two-color autoluminescent reporter by pairing a red-shifted fungal luciferase with a green one. Reading the color ratio rather than brightness corrects for metabolic effects, letting them track plant defense signaling and localized immune activity around infection sites over long periods.
