Weighing the options: a test of alternative stomatal optimisation models at high temperatures
Summary Stomatal optimisation models centre upon a fundamental tradeoff for plants: opening stomata promotes carbon uptake, but closing stomata prevents water loss. However, stomatal opening can occur at high temperatures, causing evaporative cooling which limits thermal damage to leaves.

Fascinating single‐cell red algae: models for evolution and adaptation
Summary The unicellular red algae, Cyanidiophyceae, that diverged early during Archaeplastida (algal and plant) evolution, occupy a variety of extreme habitats that are inhospitable for most other eukaryotes. With the use of modern genomics and genetics methods, Cyanidiophyceae show a remarkable taxonomic diversity, share haplodiplophasic life cycles ...

Novel roles of sulfur metabolism in stress‐controlled stomata aperture regulation
Summary Stomatal closure allows plants to conserve water by reducing transpiration during drought. Surprisingly, the assimilation of the macronutrient sulfur is intimately connected to the drought stress response. This Tansley insight will only briefly touch on the general impact of sulfate assimilation on the production of drought‐response metabolites.

Summary Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) are ubiquitous metalloenzymes that catalyze the reversible hydration of CO2, enabling fundamental processes in organisms across all domains of life. Among all CAs, the role of mitochondrial βCA remains poorly understood. Here, we identify a mitochondrial βCA, βCA6, as a key regulator of branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA)

ABSTRACT Oomycete pathogens secrete hundreds of RXLR effectors into plant cells to modulate host immunity by targeting diverse plant proteins. Here, we report that the Peronophythora litchii RXLR effector PlAvh133 acts as a virulence factor and targets the litchi glycolate oxidase (GLO) LcGLO1, a key enzyme in photorespiration, thereby suppressing ...
