Chloride Application Enhances Photosynthesis and Facilitates Nitrate Translocation While Driving Chloride Translocation Into Roots Open
Chloride and nitrate are essential mineral elements for crop growth. Due to their similar physical and electrochemical properties, their uptake and translocation interact antagonistically. This suggests that applying chloride to the leaf c…

Application of cryo-FIB-SEM for investigating ultrastructure in guard cells of higher plants Open
Stomata are vital for CO2 and water vapor exchange, with guard cells' aperture and ultrastructure highly responsive to environmental cues. However, traditional methods for studying guard cell ultrastructure, which rely on chemic…

Chloride transport and homeostasis in plants Open
The micronutrient chloride (Cl ― ) plays key roles in plant physiology, from photosystem II and vacuolar ATPase activity to osmoregulation, turgor maintenance and drought resilience, while also posing toxicity risks at high concentrations.…

Date palm diverts organic solutes for root osmotic adjustment and protects leaves from oxidative damage in early drought acclimation Open
Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is an important crop in arid regions and it is well adapted to desert ecosystems. To understand its remarkable ability to grow and yield in water-limited environments, we conducted experiments in which wa…

How to Cope With Stress in the Desert—The Date Palm Approach Open
Increasing desertification constitutes a global environmental problem, mainly driven by climate change and inappropriate land‐use that limits agriculture, forestry and human colonization. The selection of suitable plant species to mitigate…

Application of cryo-FIB-SEM for investigating organelle ultrastructure in guard cells of higher plants Open
Stomata are vital for CO2 and water vapor exchange, with guard cells’ aperture and ultrastructure highly responsive to environmental cues. However, traditional methods for studying guard cell ultrastructure, which rely on chemical fixation…

Date palm acclimates to aridity by diverting organic osmolytes for root osmotic adjustment in parallel with leaf membrane remodeling and ROS scavenging Open
Highlight statement Osmotic strength of date palm roots increases with soil desiccation, for which the accumulation of organic osmolytes, such as sugars, is essential in complement to energetically cheap mineral osmotics. Date palm ( Phoen…

Integrative multi‐omics analyses of date palm ( <i>Phoenix dactylifera</i> ) roots and leaves reveal how the halophyte land plant copes with sea water Open
Date palm ( Phoenix dactylifera L.) is able to grow and complete its life cycle while being rooted in highly saline soils. Which of the many well‐known salt‐tolerance strategies are combined to fine‐tune this remarkable resilience is unkno…

<i>In planta</i>exploitation of leaf apoplastic compounds: a window of opportunity for spatiotemporal studies of apoplastic metabolites, hormones and physiology Open
Processes in the leaf apoplast are relevant for development, cell wall rheological properties, plant nutrition, sink-source portioning, microbe-host plant-interactions or intercellular information exchange and signaling and are therefore r…

Local and systemic metabolic adjustments to drought in maize: Hydraulic redistribution in a split‐root system Open
Background It is yet unknown how maize plants respond to a partial root drying under conditions of a limited total water supply, and which adaptation mechanisms are triggered under these conditions. Aims The aims of this study were to asse…

Aspects of stomatal physiology during salt-stress-related disturbances of ion homeostasis Open
Soil salinity is a major challenge for agriculture, because most crop plants are sensitive to high salt concentrations in soil, an environment that results in reduced growth and yield. One major constraint imposed by salinity is the disrup…

Acclimatisation of guard cell metabolism to long‐term salinity Open
Stomatal movements are enabled by changes in guard cell turgor facilitated via transient accumulation of inorganic and organic ions imported from the apoplast or biosynthesized within guard cells. Under salinity, excess salt ions accumulat…
