Conserved cellular patterning in the mesophyll of rice leaves [PDF]

Plant Direct, 2023
The mesophyll cells of grass leaves, such as rice, are traditionally viewed as displaying a relatively uniform pattern, in contrast to the clear distinctions of palisade and spongy layers in typical eudicot leaves. This quantitative analysis of mesophyll

mesophyll cell defective1, a mutation that disrupts leaf mesophyll differentiation in sunflower

Photosynthetica, 2010
Mutants with altered leaf morphology are useful as markers for the study of genetic systems and for probing the leaf differentiation process. One such mutant with deficient greening and altered development of the leaf mesophyll appeared in an inbred line of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.).

Mesophyll porosity is modulated by the presence of functional stomata [PDF]

Nature Communications, 2019
Gas exchange for photosynthesis occurs via stomata on the leaf surface and the airspace in the underlying mesophyll tissue. Here, the authors show that stomatal function modulates mesophyll airspace formation and that their coordinated development ...

Mesophyll conductance: walls, membranes and spatial complexity [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2020
SummaryA significant resistance to CO2 diffusion is imposed by mesophyll tissue inside leaves. Mesophyll resistance, rm (or its reciprocal, mesophyll conductance, gm), reduces the rate at which Rubisco can fix CO2, increasing the water and nitrogen costs of carbon acquisition.

Petal Cellular Identities

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Petals are typified by their conical epidermal cells that play a predominant role for the attraction and interaction with pollinators. However, cell identities in the petal can be very diverse, with different cell types in subdomains of the petal, in ...

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.

The role of grapevine leaf morphoanatomical traits in determining capacity for coping with abiotic stresses: a review [PDF]

Ciência e Técnica Vitivinícola, 2021
Worldwide, there are thousands of Vitis vinifera grape cultivars used for wine production, creating a large morphological, anatomical, physiological and molecular diversity that needs to be further characterised and explored, with a focus on their ...

Localized growth drives spongy mesophyll morphogenesis

, 2022
The spongy mesophyll is a complex, porous tissue found in plant leaves that enables carbon capture and provides mechanical stability. Unlike many other biological tissues, which remain confluent throughout development, the spongy mesophyll must develop ...

Proteasome targeting of proteins in Arabidopsis leaf mesophyll, epidermal and vascular tissues

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Protein and transcript levels are partly decoupled as a function of translation efficiency and protein degradation. Selective protein degradation via the Ubiquitin-26S proteasome system (UPS) ensures protein homeostasis and facilitates adjustment of ...
