Response of secondary metabolites in Aristolochia bracteolata Lam. under water stress regimes [PDF]
Journal of Stress Physiology & Biochemistry, 2021 Effect of water stress on leaf water relations and some secondary metabolites in root stem and leaf of Aristolochia bracteolata Lam. has been studied. Mature potted plants were imposed to short term water stress.

Effects of chilling on the photosynthetic performance of the CAM orchid Phalaenopsis
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 IntroductionCrassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) is one of the three main metabolic adaptations for CO2 fixation found in plants. A striking feature for these plants is nocturnal carbon fixation and diurnal decarboxylation of malic acid to feed Rubisco ...

Occurrence of crassulacean acid metabolism in leaves of Aristolochia bracteata Ritz
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 Aristolochia bracteata Ritz. is a common weed of fallowlands of hot, semi-arid region of Baramati area. High succulence index was noticed in leaf tissues along with marked diurnal fluctuations in titratable acidity status, and pH of leaf sap.

Anion channel sensitivity to cytosolic organic acids implicates a central role for oxaloacetate in integrating ion flux with metabolism in stomatal guard cells [PDF]
, 2011 Stomatal guard cells play a key role in gas exchange for photosynthesis and in minimizing transpirational water loss from plants by opening and closing the stomatal pore.

Why all those spines? Anachronistic defences in the Didiereoideae against now extinct lemurs
South African Journal of Science, 2013 Plants evolve physical defences, such as spines, against browsing herbivores. However, in some cases, these defences may be anachronistic because the principal consumers of protected parts of the plant are extinct.

Stomatal Responses to Light, CO2, and Mesophyll Tissue in Vicia faba and Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 The responses of stomatal aperture to light intensity and CO2 concentration were studied in both Vicia faba (C3) and Kalanchoë fedtschenkoi (Crassulacean acid metabolism; CAM), in material sampled from both light and dark periods.
