Stomata: the holey grail of plant evolution [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, 2021
The greatest cost associated with terrestrial photosynthesis is maintaining hydration in the presence of phenomenal evaporative forces from the atmosphere. Without the capacity to maintain internal water reserves, vascular plants (tracheophytes) would never have escaped the soil boundary layer.

Effects of Heavy Metals on Stomata in Plants: A Review

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023
Stomata are one of the important structures for plants to alleviate metal stress and improve plant resistance. Therefore, a study on the effects and mechanisms of heavy metal toxicity to stomata is indispensable in clarifying the adaptation mechanism of plants to heavy metals.

Phytocytokine signalling reopens stomata in plant immunity and water loss

Nature, 2022
Stomata exert considerable effects on global carbon and water cycles by mediating gas exchange and water vapour1,2. Stomatal closure prevents water loss in response to dehydration and limits pathogen entry3,4. However, prolonged stomatal closure reduces photosynthesis and transpiration and creates aqueous apoplasts that promote colonization by ...

Liverwort bHLH transcription factors and the origin of stomata in plants

Current Biology, 2023
Stomata are distributed in nearly all major groups of land plants, with the only exception being liverworts. Instead of having stomata on sporophytes, many complex thalloid liverworts possess air pores in their gametophytes. At present, whether stomata in land plants are derived from a common origin remains under debate.1,2,3 In Arabidopsis thaliana, a

Signaling in plant development and immunity through the lens of the stomata

Current Biology, 2023
The proper development and function of stomata - turgor-driven valves for efficient gas-exchange and water control - impact plant survival and productivity. It has become apparent that various receptor kinases regulate stomatal development and immunity.

Role of Stomata in Plant Innate Immunity and Foliar Bacterial Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Phytopathology, 2008
Pathogen entry into host tissue is a critical first step in causing infection. For foliar bacterial plant pathogens, natural surface openings, such as stomata, are important entry sites. Historically, these surface openings have been considered as passive portals of entry for plant pathogenic bacteria.
