Abstract

AbstractStomata are epidermal pores that facilitate plant gas exchange. Grasses have fast stomatal movements, likely due to their dumbbell-shaped guard cells and lateral subsidiary cells. Subsidiary cells reciprocally exchange water and ions with guard cells. However, the relative contribution of subsidiary cells during stomatal closure is unresolved. We compared stomatal gas exchange and stomatal aperture dynamics in wild type andpan1,pan2, andpan1;pan2 Zea mays (L.)(maize) mutants, which have varying percentages of aberrantly formed subsidiary cells. Stomata with 1 or 2 defective subsidiary cells cannot close properly, indicating that subsidiary cells are essential for stomatal function. Even though the percentage of aberrant stomata is similar inpan1andpan2, pan2showed a more severe defect in stomatal closure. Inpan1, only stomata with abnormal subsidiary cells fail to close normally. Inpan2, all stomata have stomatal closure defects, indicating that PAN2 has an additional role in stomatal closure. MaizePan2is orthologous to ArabidopsisGHR1,which is also required for stomatal closure. PAN2 acts downstream of Ca2+in maize to promote stomatal closure. This is in contrast to GHR1, which acts upstream of Ca2+, and suggests the pathways could be differently wired.
