Young guard cells function dynamically despite low mechanical anisotropy but gain efficiency during stomatal maturation in Arabidopsis thaliana

This study tracks stomatal maturation in Arabidopsis thaliana, showing mature guard cells are more energy efficient due to increased mechanical anisotropy and reduced turgor pressure changes.

Protocol for mapping the spatial variability in cell wall mechanical bending behavior in living leaf pavement cells

The paper measures nonuniform elastic modulus distribution in Arabidopsis thaliana pavement cell walls using mechanical indentation and computational modeling.
