Turgor pressure change in stomatal guard cells arises from interactions between water influx and mechanical responses of their cell walls
The ability of plants to absorb CO2 for photosynthesis and transport water from root to shoot depends on the reversible swelling of guard cells that open stomatal pores in the epidermis. Despite decades of experimental and theoretical work, the biomechanical drivers of stomatal opening and closure a...
