The control of gaseous exchange between the leaf and external atmosphere is governed by
stomatal conductance (gs); therefore, stomata play a critical role in photosynthesis and …

To predict how forests will respond to rising temperatures and atmospheric CO 2
concentrations, we need to understand how trees respond to both of these environmental …

Potato single nodes were cultured in vessels containing MS medium supplemented with 10,
20 and 30g/l of sucrose. Vessels were closed with a clear polypropylene lid with or without …

It is well known that physical leaf traits influence leaf functions, and that these traits vary
across environmental gradients. Stomata can influence leaf function, with changes in density …

Mountain birch (Betula utilis) is the most important treeline species in alpine forests of
southwestern China. In order to understand the effects of future warming on treeline birch …

Maize seedlings emit sesquiterpenes during the day in response to insect herbivory.
Parasitoids and predators use induced volatile blends to find their hosts or prey. To …

This study was conducted to understand the toxic effects of cadmium nitrate and lead nitrate
[Cd (NO3) 2 and Pb (NO3) 2] and their mitigating role on the Capsicum annuum L. cultivar …

Stomata control the uptake of CO2 into the leaf along with water loss through transpiration
and are critical for maintaining plant water status and leaf temperature. The predicted …

Stomata are pores in the gastight waxy cuticula that covers the outer surface of aerial parts
of plants. They make uptake of CO2 possible, which is needed for photosynthesis. At the …

In summer, high light and elevated temperature are the most common abiotic stresses. The
frequent occurrence of monsoon exposes the abaxial surface of soybean [Glycine max (L.) …
