The POLAR2M project investigates the formation and regulation of stomata in grasses, focusing on the roles of POLAR and PL1 proteins in cell division. By studying the wild-grass model Brachypodium distachyon, the project aims to enhance understanding of these structures, which are crucial for water-use efficiency and s…
Stomata are specialized epidermal structures enabling gas-exchanges, key innovation for terrestrial plants but also weak spots regarding abiotic and biotic stresses.
In most dicotyledons, stomata consist of two kidney-shaped guard cells, whereas grasses form a unique four-cell complex with two subsidiary cells (SCs) allowing faster stomatal opening and closing, contributing to water-use efficiency and stress resilience.
As grasses include major cultivated plants in Europe, understanding how thes…
