Dual mechanisms give rise to biphasic stomatal opening in onion
Anisotropic guard cell wall stiffness enhances onion stomatal pore opening by increasing guard cell arc length. Summary Stomata are controllable micropores on the leaf surface that regulate gas exchange and water loss. Pore aperture adjustment is a mechanical process whereby changes in guard cell turgor drive changes in cell shape, resulting in ...

ABSTRACT Objective Pistacia lentiscus L. tree is known for its aromatic mastic gum containing terpenes α‐pinene and β‐myrcene, and has been applied as a traditional remedy in oral care for centuries. Previously, intranasal exposure to mastic resin volatiles increased salivary flow in healthy and dry‐mouth individuals. This study assessed the biological

Single‐Nucleus Transcriptome Analysis Provides New Insights Into B Chromosome Elimination in Sorghum
ABSTRACT B chromosomes are supernumerary entities found in many plant species, with some exhibiting tissue‐specific elimination. In Sorghum purpureosericeum, extensive B chromosome elimination occurs during embryogenesis affecting most of the embryonic organs, leaving the B chromosome maintained mainly in limited regions of meristems.
