Intraspecific variation in stomatal architecture, gas exchange, and drought response of a dominant prairie grass sourced from broad climatic gradients

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Understanding how plant populations adapt to water limitation through stomatal traits is key to predicting drought responses. The dominant C4 grass Andropogon gerardi, distributed across sharp climate gradients in North America, offers an excellent focal species to study stomatal architecture (size and density).

Regulation of stomatal conductance and transpiration in forest canopies [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 1998
Processes regulating stomatal conductance, g(s), and transpiration, E, from forest canopies are reviewed. The first section deals with the response of g(s) to environmental variables. Phenomenological models have been used to interpret field data and predict diurnal and seasonal variability in g(s), but models that couple stomatal conductance to ...

Stomatal conductance, mesophyll conductance, and transpiration efficiency in relation to leaf anatomy in rice and wheat genotypes under drought

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2017
Genotypes of Oryza sativa, O. glaberrima and Triticum aestivum were investigated for leaf gas-exchange parameters in relation to anatomical characteristics. Species-dependent relationships provide leads for growing rice like dryland cereals.

Rangewide responses of Mimulus cardinalis to an extreme heat event

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Extreme events are an understudied aspect of ongoing anthropogenic climate change that could play a disproportionate role in the threat that rapid environmental shifts pose to natural populations. Methods We exposed plants originating from seeds that were harvested before (ancestors) and after (descendants) multiple extreme heat events

Protocol: optimised electrophyiological analysis of intact guard cells from arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genetic resources available for Arabidopsis thaliana make this species particularly attractive as a model for molecular genetic studies of guard cell homeostasis, transport and signalling, but this facility is not matched by accessible tools for ...

Enabling the study of gene function in gymnosperms: Virus‐induced gene silencing in Ephedra tweedieana

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise As the sister clade to angiosperms, extant gymnosperms are crucial for reconstructing ancestral gene regulatory networks in seed plants. This highlights the need for model systems representing each of their distinct lineages. However, tools to quickly and effectively investigate gene function in gymnosperms are still limited due to the

Assessment of variation in photosynthetic parameters in healthy and infected Parrotia persica C.A.Mey. with Viscum album L. in relation with tree location in stand

open access: yesیافته‌های نوین در علوم زیستی, 2015
This investigation was conducted to compare the photosynthetic indices in ironwood trees infected by Viscum album L. and healthy trees located both in stand and out of stand in plain forest of Tamishan, Nour city.

Early evolutionary history of the seed

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The seed is an essential stage in the life history of gymnospermous and angiospermous plants, facilitating both their survival and dispersal. We reappraise knowledge of the evolutionary history of the gymnospermous seed, from its origin in the late Devonian through to the well‐known end‐Permian extinctions – an interval encompassing the ...
