Guard cell chloroplasts are essential for blue light-dependent stomatal opening in Arabidopsis.

Guard cell chloroplasts are essential for blue light-dependent stomatal opening in Arabidopsis.

Blue light (BL) induces stomatal opening through the activation of H+-ATPases with subsequent ion accumulation in guard cells. In most plant species, red light (RL) enhances BL-dependent stomatal opening. This RL effect is attributable to the chloroplasts of guard cell, the only cells in the epiderm...
