Release of Malate from Epidermal Strips during Stomatal Closure

C A Van Kirk et al. Plant Physiol. 1978 Mar.

Abstract

Isolated epidermal strips of Vicia faba and Commelina communis release malate into their bathing medium when stomata close. This release was largest (about 0.6 of the initial malate content) when epidermal strips of C. communis were floated on 10(-5) M (+/-)-abscisic acid.
