Abstract: Osmotic stress that is induced by salinity and drought affects plant growth and development, resulting in significant losses to global crop production. Consequently, there is a strong need to develop stress-tolerant crops with a higher water use efficiency through breeding programs. Water use efficiency could be improved by decreasing stomatal transpiration without causing a reduction in CO2 uptake under osmotic stress conditions. The genetic manipulation of stomatal density could be one of the most promising … Show more

“…While stomatal conductance is a major regulator of leaf transpiration under normal conditions, water can also be lost from the leaf surface, bypassing stomata through a process known as residual transpiration (RT; Hasanuzzaman et al., 2023). Under stress conditions, RT could contribute up to 50% of total water loss by plants during the day and 60% during the night (Even et al., 2018).…”

“…Under stress conditions, RT could contribute up to 50% of total water loss by plants during the day and 60% during the night (Even et al., 2018). Two factors can affect the rate of RT: the total amount of cuticular wax deposited on a leaf surface, and the density of stomata (Hasanuzzaman et al., 2023). It was shown that decreased stomatal density enhances tolerance to both drought and salt stresses (Caine et al., 2019; Hepworth et al., 2015; Xie et al., 2010).…”
