Plant Development: Three Steps for Stomata
نویسنده
چکیده
Three basic helix-loop-helix proteins regulate sequential steps in the formation of stomata: SPEECHLESS initiates entry into the stomatal lineage; MUTE controls asymmetric divisions of stomatal precursor cells; and FAMA promotes guard cell differentiation.

Stomatal Density as a Selection Criterion for Developing Tea Varieties with High Physiological Efficiency
Stomata, the small opening in leaf connecting plant with atmosphere, play pivotal roles in global water and carbon cycles. Stomata regulate the two key important physiological functions viz. photosynthesis and transpiration and thus are crucial for performance of crop species in changing climatic conditions. Although environmental factors influence the density and size of stomata, the genetic c...

This experiment was conducted in the Agriculture College of the University of Lorestan in 2007. To study morphological structure of stomata and forage yield in three species of forage vetch (Vicia sp.), a factorial experiment on the basis of a complete randomized block design (RCBD) with three replications was performed. The experimental treatments were three plant densities (100, 150 and 200...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Arabidopsis guard cells: analysis of the networks incorporating the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, FAMA.
Nearly all extant land plants possess stomata, the epidermal structures that mediate gas exchange between the plant and the environment. The developmental pathways, cell division patterns, and molecules employed in the generation of these structures are simple examples of processes used in many developmental contexts. One specific module is a set of "master regulator" basic helix-loop-helix tra...
متن کاملSpeedy Grass Stomata: Emerging Molecular and Evolutionary Features.
Published by the Molecular Plant Shanghai Editorial Office in association with Cell Press, an imprint of Elsevier Inc., on behalf of CSPB and IPPE, SIBS, CAS. Stomata in most land plants are formed by a pair of guard cells, controlling the water loss and the carbon dioxide uptake. The development, patterning, and density of stomata are fundamental traits for stomatal function, contributing to p...
متن کاملThe effect of simulated dust storm on wood development and leaf stomata in Quercus brantii L
Dust storms are increasingly threatening the forest ecosystem in Western Iran. Due to its coverage of vast area of Zagros forest, the Quercus brantii is at the front line of the attack. Most tree deaths in this forest are from this species. This study aims to investigate the effect of simulated dust on wood development and leaf stomata from seedlings of Persian oak. The oak seedlings were...
