Nitric oxide in guard cells as an important secondary messenger during stomatal closure

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
he modulation of guard cell function is the basis of stomatal closure, essential for optimizing water use and CO2 uptake by leaves. Nitric oxide (NO) in guard cells plays a very important role as a secondary messenger during stomatal closure induced by ...

Resolving the central metabolism of Arabidopsis guard cells

Scientific Reports, 2017
Photosynthesis and water use efficiency, key factors affecting plant growth, are directly controlled by microscopic and adjustable pores in the leaf—the stomata. The size of the pores is modulated by the guard cells, which rely on molecular mechanisms to

Ammonium Salts as Curing Agents to Obtain Ionic Epoxy Resins With a Thermoplastic‐to‐Thermoset Transition

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ionic epoxy networks are prepared using ammonium salts as hardeners, leading to a two‐stage curing process with a thermoplastic‐like intermediate. This uncommon behavior enables extrusion and fabrication of thermoplastic prepregs that can be cured into thermoset composites.

Stomatal Function Requires Pectin De-methyl-esterification of the Guard Cell Wall

Current Biology, 2016
Summary Stomatal opening and closure depends on changes in turgor pressure acting within guard cells to alter cell shape [1]. The extent of these shape changes is limited by the mechanical properties of the cells, which will be largely dependent on the ...
