Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated stomatal blue light (BL) response in obligate crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) plants, Kalanchoe pinnata and Kalanchoe daigremontiana. The stomatal responses to BL were determined in both intact leaves and detached epidermis using dual-beam protocol to distinguish the BL-dependent stomatal opening from the photosynthesis-dependent stomatal opening. The stomata open in response to BL superimposed on the background red light (RL). The BL-dependent stomatal opening was completely inhibited by both an inhibitor of type 1 protein phosphatase and an inhibitor of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase. A fungous toxin fusicoccin (FC), an activator of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase induced stomatal opening in the dark. BL and FC caused both activation of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase in guard cells, and stomatal opening. These results indicate that BL-dependent stomatal opening operates in obligate CAM plants, regardless of the difference in the modes of photosynthesis.
