This is the basis for the opening and closing of a stoma, known as stomatal movement, which controls gas exchange necessary for photosynthesis and limits water loss. How do guard cells change ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) The GORK channel in Arabidopsis plays a crucial role in stomatal closure by facilitating potassium efflux, impacting plant water regulation. Structural and ...

Anion transport by unidentified guard-cell channels closes the stomatal pore and the first component for this channel function has now been found. You have full access to this article via your ...

"We were able to show mite infestation induced a rapid stomatal closure response, with the plant hormone ABA rising in the leaf tissues—highest in stomatal and vascular cells, but also all other ...

Plant biologists, including Prof. Jörg Kudla from the WWU Münster have shown: A mechanical injury of plant leaves causes rapid stomatal closure. This closure process is initiated by the plant hormone ...

which regulates stomatal closure during drought stress, directly inactivates TOT3 through phosphorylation. This specific phosphorylation-mediated control of TOT3 activity acts as a switch to ...
