The Physiology of Stomatal Opening
•
Three Cues
•
Light causes the guard cells to accumulate potassium ions
and thus increase turgidity.
•Blue-light receptor in the guard cells which senses light
and activates a pump (ATP required) to uptake potassium
ions.
•
CO2 Depletion within the leaf air spaces. This occurs right
at the beginning of PS.
•
Internal Clock: which operates even if you keep the plant
in the dark so the plant has some sort of internal
mechanism for regulating the opening of the stomates.
The Physiology of Stomatal Closing
•
Water Deficiency
•
Hormonal control (abscisic acid) produced in responses to
drought conditions will cause guard cells to close the stomata.
•
High Temperatures: may occur by increasing carbon dioxide
levels within the leaf as respiration increases

Thickened cuticle
2.
Outermost (dermal) tissue is
multilayered
3.
Stomata are recessed in pits.
4.
Hairs or trichomes create a
protected layer of water vapor near
the leaf.
Phloem translocates its sap from sugar sources to sugar sinks
•
Sucrose made during PS will travel symplastically.
•
It can leave the symplast and then travel apoplastically
•
From the cell wall it can then be “dumped into” or loaded into
the companion cells and sieve tube members thus increasing
the concentration of sugar in these cells.
•
This movement into the companion cells and sieve tube
members is thought to be done with the help of proton
pumps.
•
The hydrogen ions that are pumped into the apoplast are
then cotransported with the sucrose back into the
companion or sieve tube cell.
Figure 36.16 Loading of sucrose into phloem
Figure 36.17 Pressure flow in a sieve tube
1.
As sucrose gets loaded into the
sieve tube members the water
potential goes down.
2.
Water then enters the sieve tube
member from a neighboring
xylem vessel.
3.
This causes the buildup of
pressure, hydrostatic pressure
which forces the sap to flow.
4.
Since sucrose is being taken up
at a “sink”, water pushes the
sucrose in that direction.
