Was the evolution of faster stomata driven by increased gas exchange rates rather than increasing water use efficiency? [PDF]
New PhytolSummary Following changes in light flux, photosynthesis (A) typically adjusts more quickly than stomatal conductance (gs), which is dependent on changes in stomatal aperture. Faster stomatal responses are proposed to reduce water loss and enhance growth in dynamic light environments. Stomatal opening and closing parameters were determined in a range of

Effect of (Changes in) Air Humidity on Transpiration and (Adaptation of) Stomatal Closure of Tradescantia Leaves during Water Stress [PDF]
, 2009 This paper summarises our recent research on the physiological effects of prolonged high RH during growth on stomatal function and we discuss possibilities that arise from this work for reducing postharvest quality problems in cut flowers.

Effect of Relative Air Himidity on the Stomatal Functionality in Fully Developed Leaves [PDF]
, 2010 Several studies have shown that stomata developed under long-term high relative air humidity (RH =85%) are malfunctional, resulting in a poor control of water loss.

Patterns of amyloplast distribution during microsporogenesis in Tradescantia, Impatiens and Larix
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014 During the meiotic prophase I in Tradescantia and Impatiens microsporocyte becomes temporarily asymmetric, with excentrically situated nucleus and all amyloplasts gathered in a dense group close to the nuclear envelope..
