The genetic architecture of photosynthesis and plant growth-related traits in t...

To identify genomic regions involved in the regulation of fundamental physiological processes such as photosynthesis and respiration, a population of Solanum pennellii introgression lines was analyzed. We determined phenotypes for physiological, metabolic, and growth related traits, including gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence parameters. Data analysis allowed the identification of 208 physiological and ...

Pore size regulates operating stomatal conductance, while stomatal densities dr...

Leaf gas exchange is influenced by stomatal size, density, distribution between the leaf adaxial and abaxial sides, as well as by pore dimensions. This study aims to quantify which of these traits mainly underlie genetic differences in operating stomatal conductance (gs) and addresses possible links between anatomical traits and regulation of pore width. Stomatal responsiveness to desiccation, gs-related anatom...

Root-to-shoot ABA signaling does not contribute to genotypic variation in stoma...

High relative air humidity (RH 85%) during leaf expansion hampers stomatal responsiveness to closing stimuli, a genotype-dependent effect. Genotypes with reduced stomatal closure in response to closing stimuli (i.e., sensitive genotypes) show low bulk leaf abscisic acid concentration ([ABA]). We hypothesized that the amount of ABA produced in the roots and delivered with the transpiration stream to the leaves i...

High relative air humidity (RH >= 85%) during leaf expansion hampers stomatal responsiveness to closing stimuli, a genotype-dependent effect. Genotypes with reduced stomatal closure in response to closing stimuli (i.e., sensitive genotypes) show low bulk leaf abscisic acid concentration ([ABA]). We hypothesized that the amount of ABA produced in the roots and delivered with the transpiration stream to the leave...

QTL analysis for stomatal functioning in tetraploid Rosa × hybrida grown at hig...

High relative air humidity (RH >= 85 %) during leaf development disturbs stomatal functioning leading to excessive water loss in conditions of high evaporative demand, resulting in severe reduction in postharvest longevity. In roses, this effect depends on the genotype, opening the possibility for breeding cultivars with more responsive stomata. In this study, we aim at identifying genomic regions associated wi...

Postharvest water relations in cut rose cultivars with contrasting sensitivity ...

A constant highrelativeairhumidity (RH) during cultivation can strongly reduce the vase life in some cutrosecultivars. We studied three contrastingcultivars in their tolerance to high RH in order to analyse in detail the waterrelations during postharvest and better understand this genotypic variation. Plants were grown at moderate (60%) and high (95%) RH, and cut flowers were placed in water immediately after c...

Avoiding high relative air humidity during critical stages of leaf ontogeny is ...

Plants of several species, if grown at high relative air humidity (RH >= 85%), develop stomata that fail to close fully in case of low leaf water potential. We studied the effect of a reciprocal change in RH, at different stages of leaf expansion of Rosa hybrida grown at moderate (60%) or high (95%) RH, on the stomatal closing ability. This was assessed by measuring the leaf transpiration rate in response to de...

Effect of high relative air humidity on the water uptake components of cut roses

Effect of high relative air humidity on the cuticular water permeability, and i...
