Stomatal responses to environmental factors

  • Chapter
Stomata

Abstract

Stomata are situated in the leaf surface where they are best positioned to control the influx and efflux of gases between the interior of a leaf and its environment. Furthermore, guard cells are usually only connected to neighbouring cells via their dorsal walls, and, at maturity, these walls do not possess functional plasmodesmata (see Chapter 3). Thus, because of their relative isolation from the rest of the plant body, stomata are ideally suited for sensing and responding to environmental factors.
