Differences in the response sensitivity of stomatal index to atmospheric CO2 among four genera of Cupressaceae conifers [PDF]
The inverse relationship between stomatal density (SD: number of stomata per mm(2) leaf area) and atmospheric concentration of CO2 ([CO2]) permits the use of plants as proxies of palaeo-atmospheric CO2. Many stomatal reconstructions of palaeo-[CO2] are based upon multiple fossil species.

Physiological drought responses improve predictions of live fuel moisture dynamics in a Mediterranean forest. [PDF]
The moisture content of live fuels is an important determinant of forest flammability. Current approaches for modelling live fuel moisture content typically focus on the use of drought indices.

Diversity in Surface Microstructures of Trichomes, Epidermal Cells, and Stomata in Lentil Germplasm
To develop crops capable of withstanding challenges posed by climate change, breeding strategies must focus on addressing multiple stresses occurring concurrently in plants.

Long-term effects of red- and blue-light emitting diodes on leaf anatomy and photosynthetic efficiency of three ornamental pot plants [PDF]
Light quality critically affects plant development and growth. Development of light-emitting diodes (LEDs) enables the use of narrow band red and/or blue wavelengths as supplementary lighting in ornamental production.

Stomatal index responses of Agrostis canina to CO2 and sulphur dioxide: implications for palaeo‐[CO2] using the stomatal proxy [PDF]
• Stomatal index values of fossil plants are widely used in reconstructing palaeo-[CO(2)]. This depends upon the assumption that the stomatal index is determined by the atmospheric concentration of CO(2) ([CO(2)]). This study investigates whether fumigation with, and resistance to, sulphur dioxide (SO(2)) induces a reduction in the stomatal index that ...

Stomatal abundance and distribution in Prosopis strombulifera plants growing under different Iso-Osmotic salt [PDF]
Changes in several environmental parameters are thought to affect stomatal development. Under salt stress, plants can regulate their transpiration flux through a better control of the stomatal opening (as a short-term response) and through modifications ...
