The invention relates to a method for observing microscopic structures 
inside plant roots, which is capable of effectively solving the problem of utilizing a 
microscope to clearly observe the structures inside the 
plant roots. The method comprises the steps of digging out the 
plant roots, washing, shearing the 
plant roots into small sections, fixing the 
plant roots by 
methanol, and then embedding by a 
sepharose solution, cooling, condensing, trimming into small blocks, after freehand section, placing the small blocks into 
distilled water in a container, performing 
lactic acid clearing, covering, 
dyeing via 
berberine or 
fluorescein, bleaching by the water, performing poststaining via 
toluidine blue O or sarranine O, bleaching by the water, performing water seal, observing and photographing via an inverted 
fluorescence microscope, and obtaining a clear image. The method can be used for observing the microscopic structures inside the 
plant roots, thereby being effectively used for the research on classification, auxanology, 
ecology and 
physiology of medical plants. The method disclosed by the invention has the advantages of simple method, easiness in operation, low cost, low 
working capacity, high success rate, and good effect, thereby being capable of being used for the research on morphological 
anatomy of the roots. The method is simpler and more effective for the thinner root sections of the plants.
