Leaf stomatal traits rather than anatomical traits regulate gross primary productivity of moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) stands. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2023 Leaf stomatal and anatomical traits strongly influence plant productivity. Understanding the environmental adaptation mechanisms of leaf stomatal and anatomical traits and their relationship with ecosystem productivity is essential to better understand ...

Rapid non-destructive method to phenotype stomatal traits. [PDF]
Plant Methods, 2023 Background Stomata are tiny pores on the leaf surface that are central to gas exchange. Stomatal number, size and aperture are key determinants of plant transpiration and photosynthesis, and variation in these traits can affect plant growth and ...

Species climate range influences hydraulic and stomatal traits in Eucalyptus species. [PDF]
Ann Bot, 2017 Plant hydraulic traits influence the capacity of species to grow and survive in water-limited environments, but their comparative study at a common site has been limited. The primary aim of this study was to determine whether selective pressures on species originating in drought-prone environments constrain hydraulic traits among related species grown ...

An Intrinsic Geometric Constraint on Morphological Stomatal Traits. [PDF]
Front Plant Sci, 2021 A strong negative non-linear relationship exists between stomatal density (SD) and size (SS) or length (SL), which is of high importance in gas exchange and plant evolution. However, the cause of this relationship has not been clarified. In geometry, SD has an intrinsic relationship with SS−1 or SL−2, which is defined as a geometric constraint here. We

WSF: A Transformer-Based Framework for Microphenotyping and Genetic Analyzing of Wheat Stomatal Traits. [PDF]
Plants (Basel)Stomata on the leaves of wheat serve as important gateways for gas exchange with the external environment. Their morphological characteristics, such as size and density, are closely related to physiological processes like photosynthesis and transpiration.

Evolutionary association of stomatal traits with leaf vein density in Paphiopedilum, Orchidaceae. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Both leaf attributes and stomatal traits are linked to water economy in land plants. However, it is unclear whether these two components are associated evolutionarily.In characterizing the possible effect of phylogeny on leaf attributes and stomatal ...

Stomatal and Non-Stomatal Leaf Traits for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency in Rice
BiologyGlobally, rice cultivation consumes large amounts of fresh water, and urgent improvements in water use efficiency (WUE) are needed to ensure sustainable production, given increasing water scarcity.

Impact of tetraploidization on morphophysiological leaf traits in the drought tolerant 'de Ramellet' tomato landrace. [PDF]
PhotosyntheticaTetraploidization was induced in the drought-tolerant tomato landrace 'de Ramellet' to evaluate its physiological and anatomical response under well-watered (WW) and water-deficient (WD) conditions. Under WW, tetraploid plants exhibited approximately 40%

Interannual Variation of Stomatal Traits Impacts the Environmental Responses of Apple Trees. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironABSTRACTStomata are fundamental to plant‐water relations and represent promising targets to enhance crop water‐use efficiency and climate resilience. Here, we investigated stomatal density (SD) variation in 269 apple accessions across 3 years (2019–2021), which demonstrated significant differences between accessions but consistency over time.

Diversity of Leaf Stomatal Traits among Coffea canephora Pierre ex A. Froehner Genotypes [PDF]
Agronomy, 2021 Leaf morpho-anatomical characteristics directly reflect photosynthetic performance and the ability to adapt to different environmental conditions. The study of biometric traits is essential for the selection of promising plant materials for breeding ...
