Mesophyll-specific overexpressing of SvHXK6 gene improves water use efficiency without yield loss in C4 Setaria viridis

This study overexpresses SvHXK6 in mesophyll cells of C4 Setaria viridis, improving water use efficiency without reducing biomass or yield.

An energy-saving glasshouse film reduces seasonal, and cultivar dependent Capsicum yield due to light limited photosynthesis

This study shows that an energy-saving glasshouse film reduces Capsicum yield by limiting photosynthesis, with greater effects during descending photoperiods.

Anatomical drivers of stomatal conductance in sorghum lines with different leaf widths grown under different temperatures

The paper examines how leaf width and temperature affect stomatal conductance and anatomical traits in sorghum, finding narrower leaves have lower stomatal conductance and higher water use efficiency.

Heat stress prevented the biomass and yield stimulation caused by elevated CO2 in two well-watered wheat cultivars

This study shows that heat stress prevents the biomass and yield benefits of elevated CO2 in wheat, with cultivar-specific effects on photosynthesis and nitrogen allocation.

Intrinsic water use efficiency depends on stomatal aperture rather than stomatal density in C3 and C4 grasses grown at glacial CO2 and low light

The paper examines how stomatal aperture, not density, influences intrinsic water use efficiency in C3 and C4 grasses under glacial CO2 and low light conditions.

Smart Film Impacts Stomatal Sensitivity of Greenhouse Capsicum Through Altered Light

This study examines how smart glass affects stomatal sensitivity in Capsicum plants by altering light conditions, finding that light intensity is more critical than spectral quality for stomatal responses.
