A Comparison of Different Stomatal Density Phenotypes of Hordeum vulgare under Varied Watering Regimes Reveals Superior Genotypes with Enhanced Drought Tolerance [PDF]

Plants, 2023
Enhancing the water-use efficiency (WUE) of barley cultivars may safeguard yield deficits during periods of low rainfall. Reduced stomatal density is linked to enhanced WUE, leading to improved drought resistance across plant genera.

Altering Stomatal Density for Manipulating Transpiration and Photosynthetic Traits in Rice through CRISPR/Cas9 Mutagenesis [PDF]

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
Stomata regulates conductance, transpiration and photosynthetic traits in plants. Increased stomatal density may contribute to enhanced water loss and thereby help improve the transpirational cooling process and mitigate the high temperature-induced ...

Stomatal complex types, stomatal density, and the stomatal index in some species of dioscorea [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2009
Dioscorea alata L. has three stomatal complex types, namely, paracytic, anisocytic, and tetracytic stomata, with percentage frequency values of 50, 18, and 32, respectively.

Activation of 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-Carboxylic Acid Synthases Sets Stomatal Density and Clustered Ratio on Leaf Epidermis of Arabidopsis in Response to Drought [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The adjustment of stomatal density and clustered ratio on the epidermis is the important strategy for plants to respond to drought, because the stoma-based water loss is directly related to plant growth and survival under drought conditions.

Measuring Stomatal Density in Rice

Bio-Protocol, 2013
The number of stomata on leaves is known to be affected by various environmental factors and intrinsic developmental program. Stomatal density and stomatal index are generally used as indicators of the leaf development and the plant growth.

Bacterial infection systemically suppresses stomatal density. [PDF]

Plant Cell Environ, 2019
AbstractMany plant pathogens gain entry to their host via stomata. On sensing attack, plants close these pores to restrict pathogen entry. Here, we show that plants exhibit a second longer term stomatal response to pathogens. Following infection, the subsequent development of leaves is altered via a systemic signal.

Response of stomatal density and size in Betula ermanii to contrasting climate conditions: The contributions of genetic and environmental factors [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
As plant distribution and performance are determined by both environmental and genetic factors, clarifying the contribution of these two factors is a key for understanding plant adaptation and predicting their distribution under ongoing global warming ...

The combined effect of decreased stomatal density and aperture increases water use efficiency in maize [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Stomata play a crucial role in balancing carbon dioxide uptake and water vapor loss, thereby regulating plant water use efficiency (WUE). Enhancing WUE is important for sustainable agriculture and food security, particularly for crops such as maize (Zea ...

Increasing water-use efficiency directly through genetic manipulation of stomatal density [PDF]

New Phytologist, 2015
Improvement in crop water-use efficiency (WUE) is a critical priority for regions facing increased drought or diminished groundwater resources. Despite new tools for the manipulation of stomatal development, the engineering of plants with high WUE ...

ABA-mediated regulation of stomatal density is OST1-independent. [PDF]

Plant Direct, 2018
AbstractStomata, small pores on the surfaces of leaves formed by a pair of guard cells, adapt rapidly to changes in the environment by adjusting the aperture width. As a long‐term response, the number of stomata is regulated during stomatal development. The hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates both processes.
