Researchers have unraveled the action mechanism of the main plant hormone that regulates the development of stomata. This breakthrough has important implications for environmental research and for the ...

Guidelines for Stomata Research Proposal: At the end of class after the first lab period, you and your partner should submit your research proposal. This document should fit on one page and should ...

Corinne Campbell & Daniel Urban teaches ciLiving host, Jaclyn Friedlander about how plants breathe. Plants breathe and exchange gases in a fascinating way! Instead of lungs, plants use tiny pores on ...

correlation and causation: Many students do not understand the fundamental difference between correlation and causation. In this lab, stomata density variation likely results from interacting ...

Researchers were able to capture a plant breathing in real-time using a new tool called "Stomata In-Sight." The tool allows scientists to observe the microscopic movements of the stomata on plants and ...

New research in plants shows that a gene called MUTE is required for the formation of stomata -- the tiny pores that a critical for gas exchange, including releasing the oxygen gas that we breathe.

Annals of Botany, New Series, Vol. 36, No. 145 (March 1972), pp. 335-344 (11 pages) The structure and ontogeny of stomata have been studied in 33 species of the Labiatae. The mature stomata are ...

Plants constantly make trade-offs in their decisions: more light means more opportunity for photosynthesis, but then hot temperatures and dry air makes wilting more likely. Stomata - microscopic ...

Plants know how to do a neat trick. Through photosynthesis, they use sunlight and carbon dioxide to make food, belching out the oxygen that we breathe as a byproduct. This evolutionary innovation is ...
