Plant stomata: a checkpoint of host immunity and pathogen virulence [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 2010
Stomata are microscopic pores formed by pairs of guard cells in the epidermis of terrestrial plants; they are essential for gas exchange with the environment and controlling water loss. Accordingly, plants regulate stomatal aperture in response to environmental conditions, such as relative humidity, CO(2) concentration, and light intensity.

Light Regulation of Stomatal Development and Patterning: Shifting the Paradigm from Arabidopsis to Grasses

open access: yesPlant Communications, 2020
The stomatal pores of plant leaves control gas exchange with the environment. Stomatal development is prevised regulated by both internal genetic programs and environmental cues.

Stomatal clustering in Begonia improves water use efficiency by modulating stomatal movement and leaf structure

open access: yesPlant-Environment Interactions, 2022
Stomata are a pivotal adaptation of land plants and control gas exchange. While most plants present solitary stomata, some plant species experiencing chronic water deficiency display clustered stomata on their epidermis; for instance, limestone‐grown ...

Accelerating Automated Stomata Analysis Through Simplified Sample Collection and Imaging Techniques

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Digital image processing is commonly used in plant health and growth analysis, aiming to improve research efficiency and repeatability. One focus is analysing the morphology of stomata, with the aim to better understand the regulation of gas exchange ...

Plants Worldwide Reach a Stomata Stalemate

open access: yesEos, 2023
Research unveiled a surprising plateau in plants’ ability to absorb carbon through stomata, which could mean more carbon left in the atmosphere.

Mechanisms of stomatal development: an evolutionary view

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2012
Plant development has a significant postembryonic phase that is guided heavily by interactions between the plant and the outside environment. This interplay is particularly evident in the development, pattern and function of stomata, epidermal pores on ...

A Deep Learning-Based Method for Automatic Assessment of Stomatal Index in Wheat Microscopic Images of Leaf Epidermis

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The stomatal index of the leaf is the ratio of the number of stomata to the total number of stomata and epidermal cells. Comparing with the stomatal density, the stomatal index is relatively constant in environmental conditions and the age of the leaf ...

Hormonal and environmental signals guiding stomatal development

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2018
Stomata are pores on plant epidermis that facilitate gas exchange and water evaporation between plants and the environment. Given the central role of stomata in photosynthesis and water-use efficiency, two vital events for plant growth, stomatal ...
