CURLYLEAF is a key modulator of apoplast water status in Arabidopsis leaf
2022-09-26
Abstract excerpt
The apoplast of plant leaf, the intercellular space between mesophyll cells, is normally largely filled with air with a minimal amount of water in it, which is essential for key physiological processes such as gas exchange to occur. Interestingly, phytopathogens exploit virulence factors to induce a water-rich environment, known as “water soaking”, in the apoplast of the infected leaf tissue to promote disease. We...
