The Role of Grass MUTE Orthologues During Stomatal Development

Gas exchange between the plant and the atmosphere takes place through stomatal pores formed by paired guard cells.Grasses develop a unique stomatal structure that Safety Glasses consists of two dumbbell-shaped guard cells flanked by lateral subsidiary cells.These structures confer a very efficient gas exchange capacity, which may have contributed t
