Ethylene is involved in high air humidity promoted stomatal opening of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) leaves

Abstract: High relative air humidity (RH) promotes stomatal opening in tomato leaves. This study examined the role of the plant hormones abscisic acid (ABA) and ethylene in high RH induced stomatal opening. Plants were grown in high (90%) and moderate (60%) RH or transferred from moderate to high RH. ABA levels were only slightly, but significantly decreased during darkness by increasing RH. However, a significantly higher ethylene evolution was found in high RH compared with moderate RH. Ethephon increased conductance … Show more

“…But it has a negative effect when drought is not accompanied by high temperature. This is confirmed by other scientists: the more drought-resistant species of the genus Rosa are characterized with a significant lower number of stomata per area unit (Torre et al, 2003). Drought resistance of R. reversa, with a relatively large number of stomata, is probably balanced by stress avoidance mechanisms: leaf conductance and the duration of maximum stomatal opening decreased in order to control water loss via transpiration, contributing to maintenance of leaf turgor in plants under water stress (Cruz et al, 2012), and also the small size of stomata.…”

“…It shows an increased ability of water evaporation, which reduces overheating compared to other species. Therefore, increase of stomata density is a positive feature of the epidermis of plants under hyperthermia conditions but decreases drought tolerance of plants (Torre et al, 2003;Zandalinas et al, 2016). The lowest number of stomata is typical for R. spinosissima.…”

“…Depending on environmental and internal cues, ET can either positively or negatively regulate stomatal opening in several plant species ( Madhavan et al, 1983 ; Tanaka et al, 2005 ; Desikan et al, 2006 ; Arve and Torre, 2015 ). Hence, under certain conditions, producing ET may lead to increased leaf colonization by P. syringae entering open stomata, or, alternatively, to decreased stomata opening that protects endophytic P. syringae from external competitors.…”

“…Plants cultivated under constant high RH frequently express a rapid wilting trait when exposed to lower RHs (≤ 60%) (Carvalho et al, 2015;Arve et al, 2016). The incidence of adverse water relations of these plants has been mainly linked to less functional stomata (Arve and Torre, 2015;Aliniaeifard and Van Meeteren, 2016). Intuitively, one might assume that low (40%) RH exerts a contrasting effect to high RH (thus promotive) on stomatal functionality.…”
