Working model for the regulation of FLS2 and BAK1 nanoscale organization by RALFs receptor complexes.

Linear regression analysis of the relationship between the spatial clustering index and fluorescence intensity.
Spatial clustering index is calculated as the ratio of the mean of the 5% highest values to the mean of 5% lowest values of fluorescence intensity obtained on a plot line. Here, spatial clustering index values were plotted against the mean fluorescence intensity of the corresponding plot line for FLS2-GFP (A) and BAK1-mCherry (B, C). Linear regression analyses show poor to no correlation between the spatial clustering index and fluorescence intensity (R2 ranking from 0.14 and 0.015).
