Stomata are micropores that allow plants to breathe and play a critical role in photosynthesis
and nutrient uptake by regulating gas exchange and transpiration. Stomatal development …

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) accumulates under abiotic stress to recast water
relations and development. To overcome a lack of high-resolution sensitive reporters, we …

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is a model C4 crop made experimentally tractable by extensive
genomic and genetic resources. Biomass sorghum is studied as a feedstock for biofuel and …

Developmental outcomes are shaped by the interplay between intrinsic and external factors.
The production of stomata—essential pores for gas exchange in plants—is extremely plastic …

BACKGROUND It has been suggested that entomopathogenic fungi can be introduced into
plants as endophytes potentially leading to insect control. Here, we sought to identify …

Stomata are turgor-driven microscopic epidermal valves of land plants. The controlled
opening and closing of the valves are essential for regulating the gas exchange and …

The butenolide molecule, karrikin (KAR), emerging in smoke of burned plant material,
enhances light responses such as germination, inhibition of hypocotyl elongation, and …

Plants undergo photomorphogenic development in the presence of light.
Photomorphogenesis is repressed by the E3 ubiquitin ligase CONSTITUTIVELY …

Plants must balance light capture for photosynthesis with protection from potentially harmful
ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Photoprotection is mediated by concerted action of photoreceptors …

Stomata are the pores in the epidermal surface of plant leaves that regulate the exchange of
water and CO 2 with the environment thus controlling leaf gas exchange. 1 In the model …
